Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Oncology
  • Hematology

Background:

  • Extranodal marginal zone B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) can affect orbital tissues, presenting unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
  • Orbital lymphomas, while rare, require tailored treatment strategies to preserve vision and minimize morbidity.

Observation:

  • An 80-year-old male presented with extranodal marginal zone B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma involving bilateral orbital regions.
  • The patient received a combination of chemotherapy and external beam irradiation therapy for his condition.

Findings:

  • Post-treatment magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed dramatic improvement in the orbital lesions.
  • The therapeutic regimen was effective in managing the extent and impact of the orbital lymphoma.
