Abstract

Primary central nervous system T-cell lymphoma (PCNSTL) is an extremely rare type of brain tumor. There are only few reports on the imaging findings of patients with PCNSTL. Herein, we report the imaging findings of a patient with peripheral T-cell lymphoma-not otherwise specified that presented with numerous small nodular and patchy strongly enhancing lesions on MRI.

원발성 중추신경계 T 세포 임파종은 모든 뇌종양 중에서 매우 드물게 발생하는 뇌종양이다. 그렇기 때문에 지금까지 보고된 영상의학적인 소견은 매우 드물다. 저자들은 자기공명영상에서 다수의 작은 결절 및 반점형으로 조영증강되는 병변으로 보였던 뇌실질에 발생한 원발성 기타 상세불명의 말초 T 세포 림프종을 경험하였기에 영상의학적인 소견을 중점으로 하여 보고하고자 한다.
