title: Intravascular malignant lymphomatosis diagnosed in both skeletal muscle and nerve biopsies.
abstract: Intravascular malignant lymphomatosis (IML) is a lymphoma, usually of B-cell phenotype, confined to intravascular spaces. IML is a relatively rare disease that is usually diagnosed at autopsy. We report a biopsy-proven case and review 15 published cases that were diagnosed antemortem by muscle, nerve biopsy, or both.
