BACKGROUND non Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a systemic cancer that originates from lymphocites. Central nervous system lymphoma is a rare form of non Hodgkin lymphoma that involve brain parenchym and spinal cord. The most common type of nervous system involvement is a leptomeningeal metastases. Whereas brain metastases is an extremely rare finding in NHL. We present a case report of NHL patient which metastasized to brain parenchym. MATERIAL AND METHODS Case report: a fourty two year old male patient suffered from seizure in September 2018, 7 days prior to hospitalized. severe headache and weakness on the left extremities were found in addition to seizure. A single nodule on the right frontal and another nodules on the right neck region were also found since 7 months ago. Patient was diagnosed with NHL in 2017 after a confirmed biopsy of NHL and underwent a chemotherapy procedure, but uncompleted. After head ct scan procedure in September 2018, which depicted a round mass in frontal lobe, patient underwent a complete chemotherapy procedure with CHOP regimen in September 2018. Another head ct scan was performed in January 2019 after a completed chemotherapy cycle which showed significant decrease in tumour size. RESULTS before and after head ct scan showed significant decrease in tumour size, from 4cmx2cm before chemotherapy and 2.5cmx1.3cm after chemotherapy CONCLUSION central nervous system involvement in NHL is a rare condition that carries a poor prognosis. Prophylaxis therapy still on debate about it’s efficacy to prevent this disease from spreading or relapse. Awareness of the possibility central nervous system involvement should always remain in a physician’s mind when dealing with NHL patients.
