Central Nervous System Toxoplasmosis In Relapsed Hodgkin’s Lymphoma: A Case Report

Patients with immunosuppression have an increased incidence of toxoplasmosis characterized byinvolvement of the central nervous system. Only a few cases of toxoplasmosis associated withimmunosuppressive agents have been reported. Such cases have been reported in immunesuppressed patients outside the Iran, but a search of the literature has not revealed any previousreports from this country. We described a 17- year -old male, a known case of Hodgkin s lymphomawith the diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) toxoplasmosis. As a conclusion, CNStoxoplasmosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis in immunosuppressed patients whopresent with neurological manifestations.
