Abstract Purpose:To report a case of malignant lymphoma diagnosed from fundus findings indicating metastatic choroidal tumor.

Case and finding:The patient is a 75-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis. She had been treated with methotrexate. Fever, cytopenia, multiple pulmonary nodules, and multiple masses in the spleen were noted. She was transferred to our hospital, and referred to our department for differentiating sarcoidosis and malignant lymphoma. Visual acuity at the first visit was 20/20 OU. Iritis and scattered fundus hemorrhage were present in both eyes. Two weeks after starting 0.1% betamethasone ophthalmic solution, iritis disappeared and fundus hemorrhage showed tendency to absorb. However, a large yellowish-white elevated lesion, suspected of metastatic choroidal tumor, appeared on the inferior nasal side of her right fundus after 2 months. PET/CT showed abnormal accumulation in spleen, lung nodules, and posterior wall of right eyeball. Splenic biopsy resulted in diagnosis of High-grade B-cell lymphoma(Stage Ⅳ). R-EPOCH therapy was initiated. At onset of treatment, right visual acuity decreased to 20/32, and serous retinal detachment in the lower two quadrants involving macula. Two weeks later, ocular manifestation showed improvement. The patient achieved complete remission, and her visual acuity recovered to 20/20 with remaining retinal atrophy.

Conclusion:Diversity of ocular findings of intraocular lymphoma and the importance of observing with malignant lymphoma in mind are suggested.
