Will primary central nervous system lymphoma be the most frequent brain tumor diagnosed in the year 2000?

Abstract

There continues to be a significantly increasing incidence of brain lymphoma that is independent of age and gender. Indirect evidence implicates the AIDS epidemic as a contributor to this trend. Although the rate of increase in the incidence of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the brain is higher than for peripheral non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other glial tumors, brain lymphoma is not projected to surpass glial tumors as the most frequently diagnosed intracranial malignancy by the year 2000.
