Burkitt's lymphoma is a highly aggressive mature B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Systemic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with isolated metastasis to the optic nerve was found only in one case among nearly six thousand cases of all types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, bilateral simultaneous lymphomatous optic nerve infiltration without central nervous system (CNS) involvement has not been reported previously. Herein, we present a unique case of simultaneous bilateral optic nerve infiltration without concomitant CNS involvement in sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma.
伯基特淋巴瘤是一种高度侵袭性的成熟B细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤。在近六千例各类非霍奇金淋巴瘤中,仅发现1例系统性非霍奇金淋巴瘤伴有孤立性视神经转移。然而,此前尚无双侧同时发生淋巴瘤性视神经浸润且无中枢神经系统(CNS)受累的报道。在此,我们报告1例散发型伯基特淋巴瘤患者,其双侧视神经同时受累且无CNS受累。
