Abstract
Angiotropic intravascular large-cell lymphoma (AILL) is a rare, genera lly fatal disease characterised by a multifocal proliferation of neopl astic mononuclear cells within small blood vessels. The diagnosis of a patient was made at necropsy. The malignant cells had infiltrated the periventricular areas of the brain.
