1.1. Context: Marginal zone lymphoma, also known as mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, is a low-grade neoplasm generally with good prognosis and treatable with radiotherapy – rarely has its initial presentation in the CNS. When it does, a dural presentation is more common. However, it represents an even more infrequent condition when it appears as a primary intraparenchymal lesion and tends to be misdiagnosed: a potential problem because, almost always, a less invasive approach is adequate as treatment.
