Overview

Primary CNS lymphoma is a primary intracranial tumor usually present in those with severe immunosuppression --- commonly in those with AIDS --- and represents around 20% of all cases of lymphomas in HIV infection (other types being Burkitt's lymphoma and immunoblastic lymphoma).

Classification

Primary central nervous system lymphoma may be classified according to the site of involvement of the central nervous system into 3 groups: parenchymal, intravascular lymphoma, and primary leptomeningeal lymphoma.[1]
