Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A 55-year-old man with Gaucher disease and B-cell lymphoma developed a white meniscus along the inferior portion of the anterior chamber of both eyes. In one eye, the meniscus was also temporal, reflecting the fact that he had just been lying on his left side. Aspiration of aqueous fluid confirmed that the meniscus was made up of lymphoma cells, indicating that it was a pseudohypopyon. (A true hypopyon is made up of reactive white blood cells.) Despite intensive chemotherapy, the patient expired within 14 weeks of the discovery of the pseudohypopyon. This is the first report of binocular pseudohypopyon confirmed as lymphomatous by flow cytometric immunophenotyping analysis in a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. |
