Malignant uveitis masking a lymphocytic lymphoma

María José Molina Garrido et al. Clin Transl Oncol. 2006 Nov.

Abstract

A multitude of diseases can present as posterior bilateral uveitis. In most cases, the cause of pericardial effusion can be determined, but in some instances, the cause is not apparent even after making a systematic and complete diagnostic evaluation. We report here an unusual case of a patient who had a B-cell lymphochytic lymphoma, which presented as bilateral posterior uveitis. The diagnosis by biopsy is described, as is the role of multiple test in the diagnosis of bilateral uveitis.
