This work reports a rare case of meningeal lymphoma revealed by a bilateral exophthalmos and takes stock of this association. primary meningeal lymphoma is a very rare localization of lymphoma and its revelation by an exophthalmia is even rarer, despite the multitude of radiological aspects the role of imaging essentially MRI is essential for early diagnosis, the assessment of extension and control after a suitable treatment.
