Abstract EN

Follicular lymphoma is generally an indolent B cell lymphoproliferative disorder of transformed follicular center B cells.

Central nervous system metastasis is a very rare complication portending a very poor prognosis.

We report a rare case of follicular lymphoma presenting with leptomeningeal involvement achieving a complete remission after initial therapy.
