Abstract:
A case of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, large cell type(NIH) is reported. The literature review yielded a rare case report of a malignant lymphoma especially in the even more rare epidural site. The patient's symptoms were relieved by decompressive laminectomy and subtotal removal of mass and combined scheduled chemotherapy with radiotherapy. The pathological examination revealed malignant lymphoma, diffuse, large cell type(NIH) by H & E and immunologic marker analysis.
