Abstract: Intravascular Lymphoma (IVL) is an uncommon disease, which can rarely manifest as Mono Neuritis Multiplex (MNM) and must be considered in the differential diagnosis of Lymphoma. We report a case of a 75 year old female diagnosed with MNM who was shown to have IVL very late in her disease course by a nerve biopsy. We propose that IVL should be considered in the differential diagnosis of MNM. Awareness of the presentation of this chronic asymmetric progressive, disabling, and potentially fatal disease may be facilitated by early diagnosis and early treatment after the biopsy.
