Recurrent Hodgkin's Disease Presenting as a Clinically Isolated Cavernous Sinus Syndrome.

Whilst there is a paucity of literature around this topic, it must be remembered by the clinician that cavernous sinus syndrome may be the sole clinical presentation of recurrent Hodgkin's disease. Even though it is reported that lymphomatous involvement in the brain usually occurs late in the disease process, this case is evidence that cavernous sinus syndrome may precede other systemic signs and symptoms. Recognising this possibility will ensure a rigorous search for Hodgkin's disease, an early and effective diagnosis, and a better prognosis in affected patients.
