Abstract

There is little evidence that associates cavernous sinus syndrome, with numb chin and peripheral facial paralysis syndromes. The etiology of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a rare possibility, which could be explained by neural dissemination from Cavum. The objective of this case report is to present a rare association to these syndromes with the neural dissemination of a non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
