      unilateral loss of vision in a child.

AB  - An unusual case of primary extranodal Burkitt's-type lymphoma of the frontal base 
      dura and adjacent bone with intradural invasion is reported in a 5-year-old child 
      who presented with unilateral loss of vision in the left eye. Tissue diagnosis 
      was obtained through a craniotomy and the patient received radiotherapy plus 
      intravenous and intrathecal chemotherapy. The tumor regression and improvement in 
      vision was well documented by means of CT and visual evoked potential studies 
      (VEP). A review of the literature on this exceptionally rare tumor is presented.
