Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma is a chronic lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by a proliferation of plasma cells, small lymphocytes, plasmacytoid lymphocytes and the production of monoclonal IgM. Primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSL) are rare non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) that can be found in the brain, leptomeninges, eyes or spinal cord, and are mostly intracerebral. PCNSLs constitute 3-4% of primary brain tumors, and in most cases are diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL).(1) Low grade lymphomas as primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma are very rare. We present here a case report of a woman who presented with headache and was found to have primary intracranial lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL).
