Extranodal T/NK-cell lymphoma with fronto-orbital localization: A case report
Orbito-cerebral lymphoma in children is a rare cancer affecting the orbital and cerebral regions, often associated with extranodal lymphomas. It typically presents with ocular, neurological, and systemic symptoms, which can mimic other conditions, delaying diagnosis. MRI is the primary imaging tool for diagnosis. Treatment involves chemotherapy, sometimes with radiotherapy, and newer targeted therapies have improved survival. The prognosis is favorable for localized disease, but advanced cases or brain involvement have a higher risk of recurrence. Regular follow-up is essential to monitor for recurrence and treatment side effects.
