Abstract
Central nervous system involvement in Hodgkin lymphoma is rare. We present a case report of a 38 year old male with isolated CNS Hodgkin Lymphoma involving the cerebellum. There are no guidelines for management of CNS involvement in Hodgkin Lymphoma. He was successfully treated with subtotal excision of the cerebellar mass, followed by whole brain radiotherapy, triple intrathecal chemotherapy and PCV (Procarbazine, Lomustine and Vincristine) chemotherapy.
