ABSTRACT
The term "Neurolymphomatosis" includes the infiltration of the peripheral nervous system by lymphoma and nontumor lymphocytes. A neurolymphomatosis has not been classified as a distinct entity. Hence, its characteristic symptoms are often missed, and oncologists or neurological consultants fail to obtain an accurate diagnoses. We encountered a case of non-Hodgkins lymphoma involving the sciatic nerve, which has never been reported in the orthopedic literature in Korea. We report a case of neurolymphomatosis with a brief review of the literature.
