Is a "vanishing tumor" always a lymphoma?

J. E.C. Bromberg, MD, M. D. Siemers, MD and M. J.B. Taphoorn, MD

The authors report clinical and radiologic characteristics and ultimate diagnosis in 12 patients with a regressing cerebral mass lesion. Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNL) was found in only half of the patients with such a lesion. In patients showing a complete resolution of the enhancing lesion the probability of finding a PCNL is smaller and survival is longer.
