Triple-hit diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with choroidal and cavernous sinus involvement mimicking inflammatory and neuro-ophthalmic disease: case report
This case underscores the importance of considering secondary lymphoma in patients presenting with bilateral SRD and neuro-ophthalmic deficits, even in the absence of known systemic malignancy. The combination of cavernous sinus syndrome with concomitant mandibular nerve involvement should prompt CNS and systemic evaluation for hematologic malignancy. Patients with triple-hit DLBCL phenotype may achieve dramatic visual recovery following modern targeted chemoimmunotherapy.
