Abstract

This article presents a clinical case of primary cerebral lymphoma diagnosed in an HIV-infected patient. Clinical manifestations of the presented pathology, and the methods for its diagnostic were described. This case is of scientific interest to doctors of various specialities, as brain lesions in immunocompromised patients may manifest with a wide range of diseases of different etiologies, with a variety of clinical and pathomorphological features, moreover the most of pathological conditions do not have pathognomonic symptoms and may have variable clinical symptoms.
