Same Diagnosis but Different Story! A Tale of Two Primary Lymphomas of the Calvaria

Abstract

We present 2 cases of isolated tumour of the calvaria that underwent a different management but, unexpectedly, the same very rare diagnosis of primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the cranial vault. Unfortunately, the outcome was the opposite due to numerous factors. We discuss herein the radiological diagnosis and surgical options in the light of the literature.
