BACKGROUND Ophthalmic involvement in lymphoma is a relatively rare condition that can result from a primary intraocular lymphoma or an intraocular manifestation of systemic lymphoma. This report reviews the ophthalmic manifestations of lymphoma. METHODS Review of relevant information from journal articles and Internet search. RESULTS Almost all the structures in the orbit, adnexiae and eye ...

Abstract Introduction: Extra-nodal exposition of T-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is extremely rare, and is frequently observed in patients with immune system dysfunction. Peripheral T-cell lymphoma does not express CD56 is rare. Malignant lymphoma of the uvula is exceedingly unusual. The current study reported a case of peripheral T-cell lymphoma of the uvula in an immunecompetent patient. ...

herein we describe a case of intraocular melanoma in a17-year old leukemic patient.   the history, histological findings of the enucleated eye, blood and bone marrow of the patient were investigated. the enucleated eye contained epitheloid cell type melanoma instead of leukemic cell infiltration.  we conclude that intraocular malignant melanoma can occur in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) was previously termed primary intraocular lymphoma. PVRL is a potentially fatal intraocular malignancy, and 65-90% of PVRL cases eventually involve the central nervous system (CNS). The incidence of PVRL has been rising in both immunocompromised and immuno-competent populations worldwide. PVRL frequently masquerades as chronic uveitis. Advanced auxiliary ex...

Human intraocular tumors and tumors derived from human tumor cell lines grown subcutaneously in the athymic nude mouse were scanned by diagnostic ultrasound. Radiofrequency scan data were converted to digital form and analyzed in the frequency domain. Characteristics of normalized power spectra were found to be significantly different among human spindle cell malignant melanomas, mixed/epitheli...

Lymphoma is the most common hematologic malignancy, accounting for more than 40% of hematologic malignancies in Korea [1]. However, lymphoma is not a single disorder but a heterogeneous group of subtypes that arise from abnormal B cells or T/NK cells at vari...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the pharmacokinetics and toxicity of intravitreal chemotherapeutic agents in the rabbit eye for the potential treatment of primary intraocular lymphoma and other intraocular malignancies. METHODS The ocular pharmacokinetics of intravitreal methotrexate sodium (400 microg) was studied in 10 New Zealand white rabbits, and a single-compartment, first-order elimination mo...
