Primary Vitreoretinal Lymphomas: A Diagnostic Challenge – Report of Two Recent Cases with Retinal Biopsies and Molecular Investigations in Halifax, Nova Scotia
PVRLs are rare, and establishing the diagnosis is difficult. The traditional use of vitreous cytology has its limitations. Recent molecular advances, in particular the detection of MYD88 mutation, are extremely helpful in confirming the diagnosis, but in certain cases, retinal biopsies may still be required.
