Numb Chin Syndrome with Concomitant Painful Ophthalmoplegia Leading to a Diagnosis of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma / Journal of the Korean Cancer Association, 대한암학회지

ABSTRACT

Painful ophthalmoplegia (PO) and concomitant numb chin syndrome (NCS) is a very rare event. There are a few reports in the literature about PO and concomitant NCS that have preceded the diagnosis of a malignancy. In this report, we describe a patient with diffuse large B cell lymphoma who presented with PO and concomitant NCS as the initial symptom of the disease.
