Popis: The present case study describes a rare case of secondary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma that infiltrated the dura and leptomeninges around the area injured by subarachnoid hemorrhage and subsequent aneurysmal clipping. Invasion of the CNS was observed by computed tomography as slurred fissures of the right parietal lobe adjacent to the surgery area. Subdural and subarachnoid enhancement overlapping the area injured by past surgical procedures was observed by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. Surgical resection revealed B-cell lymphoma infiltrating the dura and leptomeninges surrounding the post-hemorrhagic area. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with systemic lymphoma and bone marrow invasion, and multiple lymph node swelling. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of malignant lymphoma involving the CNS overlapping a previously injured area.
