Abstract Central nervous system (CNS)‐relapsed mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive non‐Hodgkin lymphoma without a standard treatment. Ibrutinib has shown promising results for inducing remission in other non‐Hodgkin lymphomas and may be considered as successful treatment for CNS‐relapsed MCL in the future as well.
