Abstract

Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is a highly aggressive B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although dural metastases are relatively frequent in malignancies, they are rarely associated with subdural hematoma (SDH). We present a case of subdural effusion secondary to dural metastases from Burkitt's lymphoma.

Resumo

O linfoma de Burkitt é um linfoma Linfoma não Hodgkin de células B altamente agressivo. Embora a presença de infiltração meninges seja relativamente comum no contexto de neoplasias malignas o surgimento de hematoma subdural secundários é evento raro. Será relatado caso de coleção subdural secundaria a metástases dural de linfoma de Burkitt que apresentou-se radiologicamente semelhante a hematoma subdural em fase subaguda.
