Foot-drop due to involvement of lumbosacral plexus in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

It causes as primary or secondary infiltration of brain, leptomeninges, or peripheral nerves and the signs of spinal cord compression. Here we present a 67-year-old woman with advanced stage diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who developed foot-drop due to lumbosacral plexus involvement.
