Abstract AIMS Unique cranial involvement in Lymphomas is extraordinary and when it occurs, it is usually accompanied by systemic involvement. The role of the surgery in these cases is still unclear. METHOD Case report of a 72-year-old female with a primary cranial vault lymphoma with primary surgical management at time of recurrence. RESULTS 72-year-old female, with a background of treated breast cancer and ischemic heart, presented with a right parieto-occipital lytic bone lesion with a soft tissue mass with a diagnosis of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Type B, compatible with follicular lymphoma, with no other symptoms Systemic involvement was ruled out in PET CT bone marrow biopsy. First-line chemotherapy was precluded due to the cardiotoxicity, and she was started on Rituximab-Bendamustine and radiotherapy. PET-CT one year later shows local progression with lytic destruction. The MRI showed an imprint on the brain and a lesion in intimate contact with the superior longitudinal sinus. As an apparently localized lesion and the patient could not receive the optimal chemotherapy treatment, a craniectomy was proposed. Fifteen months after surgery the patient is free of disease on PET CT. CONCLUSION Primary cranial lymphoma is an unusual entity which precludes clear algorithms. The primary treatment is the chemotherapy, nonetheless, If the patient cannot receive the optimal treatment due to his background or in the presence of recurrent disease with limited treatment options, surgery should be considered if technically plausible and adequate to patient’s performance status.
