[Bing-Neel syndrome: Report of 4 cases and literature review].
La Revue de Médecine Interne 2015 June
INTRODUCTION: Neurological manifestations during Waldenstrom disease are common and are usually related to immune peripheral neuropathy or serum hyperviscosity syndrome. The infiltration of the central nervous system by the lymphoproliferative syndrome is known as the Bing-Neel syndrome. This extremely rare entity remains poorly described in the literature.
CASE REPORTS: We report on 4 cases of patients for whom central neurological disorders led to the diagnosis of a Bing and Neel syndrome. These four cases illustrate different clinical presentations, diagnosis, therapeutic options, and outcome in this syndrome. Based on our literature review, we discuss about these differences.
CONCLUSION: The polymorphic clinical manifestations of Bing and Neel syndrome can mimic many diagnoses. However, it may be necessary to consider this diagnosis. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis and MRI may allow rapid diagnosis or guide a biopsy. Prolonged remissions are possible with appropriate treatment.
