A CASE OF CHORIORETINOPATHY AS FIRST MANIFESTATION OF HODGKIN'S LYMPHOMA.

2016 
To report a case of chorioretinopathy, which preceded diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma.Single patient case report.A 61-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer in remission and low-grade follicular lymphoma without criteria of high tumor burden presented with bilateral multifocal chorioretinopathy. The usual etiologies of chorioretinopathy were excluded, and subsequent onset of fever and back pain revealed the diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma. The evolution of this case of ocular involvement was concordant with that of Hodgkin's lymphoma.The authors describe a case of Hodgkin's lymphoma postdating the onset of chorioretinopathy, emphasizing the need to research an underlying disorder when faced with any inflammatory intraocular disease, and the role of indocyanine green angiography in the diagnosis and follow-up of posterior uveitis.
