Extranodal primary lymphoma involving nervous system prefers thalamus\/basal ganglia, periventricular region, cerebellum, eyes, meninges\/dura, and cranial nerves or spinal cord. Rare spinal localization with acute spinal cord compression is worth attention.<jats:italic>Case Presentation.<\/jats:italic>A 48-year-old male presented with a several-month-long history of upper back pain. Lately, he had numbness and weakness at both lower extremities and was unable to walk for one week. A spinal MRI showed a thoracic lesion with cord compression at T2\u2013T4 levels. The patient underwent surgical decompression, with his final histopathology showing diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Systemic work-up was negative for nodal disease. Following surgery, he received radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy. He experienced a good outcome after four years.<jats:italic>Conclusion.<\/jats:italic>The upper thoracic cord is a rare location for primary spinal lesions\/metastases, both of which prefer the lower thoracic and upper lumbar regions. In cases of progressive paraparesis, there should be immediate surgical intervention in the case of denovo disease, followed by combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy procedures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2015\/639253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,23]],"date-time":"2015-06-23T17:37:49Z","timestamp":1435081069000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Primary Dural Spinal Lymphoma Presentation of a Rare Spinal Tumor Case"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2015","author":[{"given":"Dilber Ay\u00e7i\u00e7ek","family":"\u00c7e\u00e7en","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. L\u00fctfi K\u0131rdar Kartal Education and Research Hospital, 34852 Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Necati","family":"Tatarl\u0131","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. L\u00fctfi K\u0131rdar Kartal Education and Research Hospital, 34852 Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hikmet","family":"Turan S\u00fcsl\u00fc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. L\u00fctfi K\u0131rdar Kartal Education and Research Hospital, 34852 Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sel\u00e7uk","family":"\u00d6zdo\u011fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Dr. L\u00fctfi K\u0131rdar Kartal Education and Research Hospital, 34852 Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nagehan \u00d6zdemir","family":"Bar\u0131\u015f\u0131k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Dr. L\u00fctfi K\u0131rdar Kartal Education and Research Hospital, 34852 Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"1","first-page":"E15","volume":"21","year":"2006","journal-title":"Neurosurgical Focus"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/annonc\/mdl329"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.sc.3102124"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/pin.12025"},{"issue":"4","key":"5","first-page":"447","volume":"17","year":"1999","journal-title":"Clinical and Experimental Rheumatology"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11999-013-2991-x"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/brs.0b013e3181b29de6"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hoc.2006.09.002"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1988.68.6.0835"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/jco.2006.08.2941"},{"issue":"1","key":"11","first-page":"33","volume":"13","year":"2003","journal-title":"Forum"},{"issue":"3","key":"12","first-page":"254","volume":"120","year":"1996","journal-title":"Archives of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1758834010365330"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Surgery"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2015\/639253.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2015\/639253.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2015\/639253.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2016,8,18]],"date-time":"2016-08-18T19:20:37Z","timestamp":1471548037000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/cris\/2015\/639253\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015]]},"references-count":13,"alternative-id":["639253","639253"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2015\/639253","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6900","2090-6919"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2090-6900","type":"print"},{"value":"2090-6919","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015]]}}}
