Systemic Lymphoma Mimicking ADEM

Systemic lupus erythematosus-nephrotic syndrome and mediastinal lymphadenopathy mimicking lymphoma.

Angiotropic large cell lymphoma with mononeuritis multiplex mimicking systemic vasculitis.

Angiotropic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), the so-called malignant angioendotheliomatosis, is characterised by proliferation of tumorous cells within small vessels. Manifestations in the CNS and cutaneous lesions prevail in the clinical presentation, although any organ can be involved. The recent classification of this lymphoma as part of the large cell lymphomas has modified the therapeutic appro...

A Case of ADEM Mimicking Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy Based on Supratentorial MRI Findings Supratentorial MRG Bulguları Serebral Adrenolökodistrofiye Benzeyen ADEM Olgusu

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an immune-mediated demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. The disease has a typical onset with sudden neurological symptoms days or weeks after a viral infection or immunization. Measels, rubella, mumps and varicella have been blamed most frequently among viral agents and rabies, diphteria, tetanus, measles, influenza and hepatitis B ...

Hodgkin Lymphoma Mimicking Osteomyelitis

Hodgkin lymphoma with symptomatic osseous involvement can have a similar presentation to osteomyelitis. Common findings in symptoms, laboratory workup, and imaging can make it very difficult to distinguish between the two diseases. Excisional biopsy should be pursued if fine-needle biopsy is equivocal and suspicion of lymphoma is high. We report a case of a 40-year-old man who presented with a ...

Cytomegalovirus retinitis mimicking intraocular lymphoma

We present a case of an unusual retinal infiltrate requiring retinal biopsy for definitive diagnosis. A 62-year-old man with treated lymphoma presented with decreased vision in the right eye associated with a white retinal lesion, which extended inferonasally from an edematous disc. Intraocular lymphoma was considered as a diagnosis; thus, the patient was managed with vitrectomy and retinal bio...
