Abstract

Patients with successfully treated Hodgkin disease are at increased risk for the development of second malignancies. We present two cases of intracranial non-Hodgkin lymphoma that appeared following successful treatment of Hodgkin disease. The appearance of the lymphomas on computed tomographic images is shown, and possible predisposing factors, differential diagnosis, and clinical implications are discussed.
