Résumé

Dysfunction of the third cranial nerve can be provoked by a number of different conditions. An isolated cranial neuropathy as a first clinical sign of a non-Hodgkin lymphoma is very infrequent. We represent here an atypical case of lymphoblastic lymphoma revealed by an isolated third cranial nerve palsy. The patient was managed by alternating cycles of cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone. She made a full recovery with a complete resolution of the symptomatology.
