Unilateral ptosis is seen in a limited number of conditions such as Horner syndrome, cluster headache, trauma, tumor, stroke, old age, nerve injury, lacrimal gland tumor, temporal arteritis or disorders of the upper eyelid. The authors present a case of unilateral ptosis secondary to Burkitt lymphoma metastasis to brain with excellent response to chemotherapy and complete resolution of ptosis in a man with human immunodeficiency virus. This vignette emphasizes the importance of recognizing ptosis as an initial presentation of Burkitt lymphoma in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus under appropriate clinical settings.
单侧上睑下垂可见于少数情况，如霍纳综合征、丛集性头痛、创伤、肿瘤、中风、衰老、神经损伤、泪腺肿瘤、颞动脉炎或上睑疾病。作者报告了一例因伯基特淋巴瘤转移至脑引起的单侧上睑下垂病例，该患者对化疗有极好的反应，上睑下垂完全缓解，且患有人类免疫缺陷病毒。这一病例强调了在适当的临床环境下，认识到人类免疫缺陷病毒患者的单侧上睑下垂是伯基特淋巴瘤的初始表现的重要性。
