Abstract

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the primary central nervous system is a rare neoplasm. With the increased incidence of this tumor in both the immunocompetent and immunocompromised population, unusual locations and imaging manifestations are likely to be encountered. We report the radiologic findings of a case of primary lymphoma involving the third ventricle, confirmed by surgery and the pathologic findings.
