Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is defined as lymphoma limited to the cranial-spinal axis without systemic disease. The rising incidence of this tumor has made improved treatment a priority. We followed three cases with PCNSL (AIDS non-related) by radiotherapy (40-46 Gray). Additionally two cases received chemotherapy (CHOP). Patients died 10, 14, and 16 months after the diagnosis. These three cases were reported and the treatment of PCNSL was discussed here by the recent literature.Keywords: Radiotherapy, drug therapy, Central Nervous System NeoplasmsTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Sci 2002, 22:417-420
