Two young patients with intraocular lymphoma presented with retinal vasculitis, a rare T-cell lymphoma. Both responded to chemotherapy, highlighting the importance of identifying T-cell markers in ocular lymphoma.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neurology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Intraocular lymphoma is a rare malignancy affecting the eye.
  • T-cell lymphomas are less common than B-cell lymphomas in ocular involvement.
  • Retinal vasculitis can be an atypical presentation of intraocular lymphoma.

Observation:

  • Two young patients presented with clinical signs of retinal vasculitis.
  • Brain biopsies revealed angiocentric lymphocytic infiltration with T-cell markers.
  • Both retinal and cerebral blood vessels were sites of malignant T-cell infiltration.

Findings:

  • The patients' intraocular lymphoma was characterized as a T-cell lymphoma.
  • Aggressive chemotherapy led to favorable responses and long-term survival in both cases.

  • Literature review indicates T-cell lymphomas constitute 21% of studied intraocular lymphomas.

    • Implications:

    • Early diagnosis and treatment of T-cell intraocular lymphoma are crucial for patient outcomes.
    • Further research into cell-typing and histochemical techniques may reveal correlations between systemic and ocular findings.
    • Angiocentric T-cell infiltration in the brain and eyes suggests a potential pathway for lymphoma spread.
