Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to report the presentation, treatment, and outcomes of vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL) associated with hemorrhagic mass-like lesions (HMLs) in the retina.
Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis of patients with HMLs associated with VRL seen at a single tertiary referral center. For each patient, the clinical charts, the fundus imaging, and the treatment outcomes were reviewed.
Results: Three eyes of 2 patients had VRL with HMLs. In all study eyes, HMLs were preceded by an area of retinitis-like retinal infiltration and evolved into elevated hemorrhagic masses. Two eyes had multiple relapses with HMLs. All HMLs regressed with treatment and were replaced by extensive chorioretinal atrophy.
Conclusion: VRL can present with HMLs. HMLs seem to correspond to massive intraretinal infiltration by VRL, mimicking a solid mass. Despite response to therapy, HMLs are associated with poor anatomical and functional outcomes.
