Description Cavernous sinus syndrome (CSS) is rare in the pediatric population. Even less frequent is CSS as the presenting symptom of lymphoma. Of the 14 cases reported in the English literature, only five have been identified as Burkitt lymphoma. We report the 6th case of primary central nervous system (CNS) Burkitt's lymphoma presenting as unilateral, cavernous sinus syndrome in a child.
