A Woman in Her 40s With Headache and New-Onset Seizures.
2017
A woman in her 40s with a history of plasma cell leukemia presented with 1 month of intermittent headaches followed by a seizure. Results from laboratory studies were notable for a cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure of 28 mm H 2 O and 8 white blood cells, including 1 atypical plasma cell. Imaging studies revealed confluent bifrontal white matter fluid-attenuated inversion recovery hyperintensities, as well as a contrast-enhancing sellar lesion. The patient underwent a stereotactic biopsy. The differential diagnosis, pathologic findings, and diagnosis are discussed.
