Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Primary central nervous system lymphoma of the fourth ventricle is very rare. We present a case of primary central nervous system lymphoma originating from the fourth ventricle and review cases reported in the literature.
CASE DESCRIPTION: A 54-year-old man with no previous medical history presented with headache and nausea. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a homogeneously enhancing tumor in the fourth ventricle and obstructive hydrocephalus. We performed biopsy of the tumor, which was diagnosed pathologically as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Although the tumor disappeared after 5 cycles of R-MPV regimen, the patient required repeated ventricular drainage and finally received a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Complete response was achieved after 2 cycles of high-dose cytarabine chemotherapy with an autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant. There was no sign of recurrence at 20 months after biopsy.
CONCLUSION: Morbidity arising due to radical resection/radiotherapy of resistant primary central nervous system lymphoma originating from the fourth ventricle could be prevented by ventriculoperitoneal shunting with chemotherapy and autologous blood stem cell transplantation.
