SUSPECTED NEUROLYMPHOMATOSIS IN THE CONTEXT OF A DISSEMINATED IMMUNOBLASTIC NON-HODGKIN LYMPHOMA AND BORRELIOSIS

SUSPECTED NEUROLYMPHOMATOSIS IN THE CONTEXT OF A DISSEMINATED IMMUNOBLASTIC NON-HODGKIN LYMPHOMA AND BORRELIOSIS

We report the case of a female patient aged 43 years with known immunoblastic gastric lymphoma admitted for progressive motor and sensory deficit with sudden onset and relatively rapid ascending up to chest level and pain in lower limbs.
