PISONI, C. N. et al. Linfoma primario del sistema nervioso central en una paciente con lupus eritematoso sistémico. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2003, vol.63, n.3, pp.221-223. ISSN 0025-7680.

A 36 year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus was admitted to our hospital with headache, brachiocrural hemiparesis and hemianesthesia. She had been treated with prednisone and cyclophosphamide. CT scan and MRI revealed a 15 mm nodular mass enhanced with gadolinium in left frontal convexity. CNS biopsy was performed and a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was diagnosed. She was treated with radiation therapy without response and died. There are few reports of erythematosus systemic lupus associated with primary central nervous system lymphoma.
