Abstract
The central nervous system (CNS) is an important area of involvement for both high-grade, aggressive primary and secondary lymphomas. Follicular lymphoma typically represents a low-grade histology. Here, we describe a case of higher-grade follicular lymphoma with CNS involvement, where the complicated and unsuspected diagnosis was prompted following a single seizure event.
