Primary extranodal lymphoma is a common malignant tumor of head and neck but rarely presents in lateral skull base. We reported such a case of lymphoma categorized as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) subtype in a 74-year-old Chinese female. She has experienced an acute course of continuously trigeminal neuralgia and Horner's syndrome. The lesion was diagnosed as trigeminal schwannoma based on symptom and medical image before operation then confirmed to be DLBCL pathologically.

We present a case of a 42-year-old male presenting with persistent hiccups and a Horner's syndrome, among other symptoms and signs of hypothalamic and brainstem dysfunction. He had a biopsy-proven diffuse infiltrative large primary CNS B-cell lymphoma involving the left fronto-temporal hemisphere, diencephalon and brainstem. The aim of this case report is to highlight key clinical and neuro-anatomical correlations that bring light to the art of the clinical examination.
