          Abstract

          RESUMEN Se presenta el caso de un paciente masculino de 21 años, quien el 30 de diciembre de 2017 comenzó con aumento de volumen, rubor y calor en región lateral derecha del cuello, posterior a la presencia de un forúnculo en región occipital del cuero cabelludo. Se inició tratamiento con antibiótico, pero aparecieron lesiones eritematopapulosas en tronco y extremidades que se interpretaron como una reacción adversa al medicamento. Comenzó con fiebre mantenida de 380C, decaimiento marcado, pérdida de peso, hepatomegalia y adenopatías pequeñas y no dolorosas en regiones inguinales y axilares, por lo que fue ingresado el 14 de enero de 2018 en el Hospital Gustavo Aldereguía Lima, de Cienfuegos y se impuso tratamiento con antibiótico ante un perfil hematológico que indicaba sepsis asociada. Se realizó aspiración con aguja fina que resultó negativa y se hicieron coordinaciones para biopsia. El 15 de enero empeoró el estado clínico del paciente con fiebre elevada, desorientación, marcada excitación, toma de conciencia e insuficiencia respiratoria, por lo que falleció el día 16. La autopsia reveló como causa básica de muerte la granulomatosis linfomatoide. Por ser esta una entidad infrecuente, desconocida por gran cantidad de clínicos y cuyo tratamiento y pronóstico no está definido, se decidió la presentación del caso.

          ABSTRACT The case of a 21-year-old male patient is presented, who on December 30, 2017 began with increased volume, flushing and heat in the right lateral region of the neck, after the presence of a boil in the occipital region of the scalp. Treatment with antibiotic was started, but erythe-matopapular lesions appeared on the trunk and extremities that were interpreted as a medication adverse reaction. He started with a maintained fever of 38 0C, malaise, weight loss, hepatomegaly and small non-painful adenopathies in the inguinal and axillary regions, so he was admitted on January 14, 2018 at the Gustavo Aldereguía Lima Hospital in Cienfuegos and was treated with antibiotic before a hematological profile which indicated associated sepsis. A fine-needle aspiration was performed, which was negative and arrangement for biopsy was made. On January 15, the clinical condition of the patient worsened with high fever, disorientation, marked excitement, awareness and respiratory insufficiency, and he died on the 16th. Autopsy revealed lymphomatoid granulomatosis as the main cause of death.

          Primary cerebral lymphomatoid granulomatosis: report of four cases and literature review.

          Lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LYG) is an angiocentric and angiodestructive lymphoreticular proliferation, which usually involves the lungs, but may also involve the central nervous system (CNS). Unique involvement of the CNS has been reported rarely. We report our experience with LYG confined to the brain and review the pertinent literature.
