Abstract
Primary dural lymphomas are rare. Usually they present themselves as diffuse lesions and are infrequently well-delimited. We present a 44 year old male, who was admitted into our Centre after a generalised seizure. Neuroimage studies (CT scan, MRI and angiography) were performed, demonstrating a right hemispheric well-delimited extra-axial mass, being diagnosed initially as meningioma. The patient underwent surgery with radical scission of the mass and dural margins. Histopathological diagnosis was Non-Hodgkin B-Cell lymphoma (marginal B-Cell lymphoma), which nowadays is considered as MALT lymphoma (Mucosa Associated Lymphoid Tissue). Studies directed to establish tumour extension didn't demonstrate the existence of another lesions in the organism.
