We describe a case of isolated primary CNS lymphomatoid granulomatosis
and a discordant low-grade B-cell lymphoma involving the bone marrow
causing chronic immune thrombocytopenia. Clinical course was complicated
with disseminated zoster and sub-massive pulmonary embolism. Our patient
was successfully managed with a combination radioimmunotherapy strategy
with rituximab and radiation therapy.09 Jan 2021Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 11 Jan 2021Submission Checks Completed
