Abstract

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a rare form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that selectively involves the lumina of vessels, and may present as ischemic stroke. A 62-year-old man presented with progressive aphasia, dementia, seizure and stroke-like symptom. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed dynamic progressive fluid attenuated inversion recovery lesions and multiple punctate microbleeds in the bilateral subcortical region. A kidney biopsy revealed IVLBCL. We report a patient with IVLBCL presenting as rapidly progressive encephalopathy.
