A rare case of malignant B cell lymphoma was diagnosed in a 69-year-old man presenting with bilateral infiltrative optic neuropathy. Further investigations did not reveal lymphoma in other body sites.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Oncology
  • Neuropathology

Background:

  • Bilateral infiltrative optic neuropathy is a rare condition that can be caused by various systemic and localized diseases.
  • Malignant B cell lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell.

Observation:

  • A 69-year-old male patient presented with bilateral infiltrative optic neuropathy.
  • Optic nerve biopsy was performed for diagnostic purposes.

Findings:

  • The optic nerve biopsy confirmed the presence of malignant B cell lymphoma.
  • Comprehensive systemic examinations and investigations ruled out lymphoma involvement in other organs or sites.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering malignant B cell lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of bilateral infiltrative optic neuropathy.
