Abstract. Purpose:To report a suspected case of primary intraocular malignant lymphoma that responded to radiation therapy. Case:A 79-year-old male underwent cataract surgery in his left eye. Anterior uveitis started to recur in the left eye 3 months later. After another 3 months, retinal vasculitis with subretinal exudates appeared with visual acuity reduced to counting fingers. Results:After 2 sessions of vitreous surgery and radiation during the ensuing 7 months, the intraocular lesion subsided with visual acuity improving to 0.3. Vitreous cytology showed class Ⅳ lymphocytic tumor cells. Interleukin(IL)10/IL6 ratio was greater than 1. These findings and the clinical course were strongly suggestive of primary intraocular malignant lymphoma. Conclusion:Primary intraocular malignant lymphoma may result in poor outcome when central nervous system is involved. Radiation may be useful as a means of diagnosis and treatment in suspected cases.
