PURPOSE: To describe a case of an unusual presentation of systemic non-Hodgki n’s lymphoma with clinical and histopathologic findings closely resembling that of primary intraocular lymphoma. DESIGN: Observational case report. METHODS: A 58-year-old woman with a history of treated systemic nonHodgkin’s lymphoma pr esented 2 years later with a subretinal lesion and intraocular inflammation in h er left eye. RESULTS: Diagnostic enucleation and histopathologic studies reveale d findings consistent with primary intraocular lymphoma including intraretinal, subretinal, and subretinal pigment epithelial tumor cells without involvement of the choroid. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that systemic non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma ca n present remotely with findings resembling primary intraocular lymphoma and sho uld be included in the differential diagnosis of intraocular inflammation and su bretinal infiltrates.
