Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is of uncertain etiology and poses problems with diagnosis and treatment. A case with involvement of the right temporal lobe, but associated with cystoid macular edema of the retina, is described. The unusual mode of presentation, the radiographic, operative, and
A retrospective review of 47 cases of lymphomatoid granulomatosis encountered between 1977 and 1990 revealed that 24 patients had skin involvement. Clinical and histologic features were noted. The dominant and most characteristic cutaneous finding was scattered nodules. Other cutaneous changes
We present the case of a 56-year-old man suffering from acquired immune deficiency syndrome associated with lymphomatoid granulomatosis. Magnetic resonance imaging performed because of convulsions revealed an ill-defined frontal mass showing hypointense on T1WI and slightly hypointense on T2WI with
Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is an Epstein-Barr virus-associated multisystem disease that combines granulomatous inflammatory process with lymphoproliferative potential. It predominantly affects lungs, skin, and brain and is characterized by multifocal, transmural, angiocentric, and angiodestructive

CONCLUSIONS
We evaluated the frequency, etiologic factors, outcome, and the comorbid conditions affecting the morbidity and mortality of pulmonary complications in acute childhood leukemia. Sixty-six (40.4%) out of 163 patients developed 79 pulmonary complications. Infectious etiology was the
OBJECTIVE
