²Gülhane Askeri Tıp Akademisi Tıbbi Onkoloji Anabilim Dalı, Ankara, Türkiye Intraocular non-hodgkin lymphoma is a primary central nervous system lymphoma where malignant lymphoid cells invade the retina, vitreal body or optic nerve head. It's usually a large B-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma typically presenting as an uveitis unresponsive to corticosteroid therapy. Pathologic confirmation of malignant cells in the specimens of cerebrospinal fluid, vitreus or chorioretinal biopsies is required in the diagnosis. The optimal therapy hasn't yet been determined.
