dc.description.abstractTemozolomide (TMZ) is an alkylating agent, used for the treatment of high-grade gliomas. This case report describes the development of a non-Hodgkin lymphoma in a patient treated with extended-dose temozolomide and radiotherapy. In addition to the possible mutagenic effect of temozolomide – as described for all alkylating agents – there might have been an immunosuppressive effect of TMZ. The pathological appearance of the lymphoma as well as the presence of a grade 3 lymphopenia early in treatment supports this hypothesis. As the use of TMZ increases, the awareness that TMZ may induce secondary malignancies should increase as well.-
