Case report: From misdiagnosis to timely detection: a clinical and imaging guide to neurological presentations of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma—insights from six cases
The differential diagnostic process for the misdiagnosed conditions in these cases has been meticulously revisited, enhancing the diagnostic acumen of neurologists. These cases underscore the imperative for neurologists to maintain a high index of suspicion for lymphoma in atypical presentations and to judiciously integrate multimodal diagnostic modalities-such as comprehensive imaging, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and biopsy-to expedite diagnosis and initiate timely intervention.
