HPI: 34 yo WM was referred to oculoplastics clinic on
09/25/12 for occasional double vision x 1-2 wks.
Pt. also c/o of numbness around his R eye,
intermittent headache and episodes of vomiting.
Patient’s problems started on 08/28/12 after being
splashed with power hose at work sustaining blunt
trauma to R eye and face. He sought no medical
attention.

soft tissue extending toward orbital apex, extensive pneumatization of sinuses and
bilateral maxillary sinus disease
MRI
Axial T1 MRI orbital/brain post contrast images demonstrate R orbital soft tissue
enhancement extending through orbital apex/superior orbital fissure to cavernous
sinus. Soft tissue fullness R cavernous sinus, streaky enhancement of retrobulbar fat
of both orbits R>L
Impression/Plan

Idiopathic inflammation possible Talosa-Hunt
syndrome

IV corticosteroids

Discharged home on 2nd hospital day on
Prednisone PO 80 mg daily
Follow up on 10/09/12
Pt. continues to c/o binocular horizontal/vertical diplopia
and headaches.

Image montage of five gaze positions demonstrates mild RUL ptosis and -2

Impression/Plan

Mild improvement of R cavernous sinus
syndrome on high dose corticosteroids

Clinical presentation concerning for R
cavernous sinus carcinomatosis

Corticosteroid taper, neuro-ophth and
neurosurgery consult
Neuro-ophth evaluation

Pt. was seen in neuro-ophthalmology clinic
within one week. He reported no
improvements in his symptoms

Corticosteroids were slowly tapered

Given response to corticosteroids and lesion
location, biopsy was postponed at this time

Over the next four weeks pt. reported slight
improvement in his diplopia.

However, he c/o headache, nausea, occasional
vomiting, loss of appetite, 15 lbs. weight loss x 3
weeks
Turn for the worse

Pt. presented to ER on 11/24/12 with dyspnea at rest,
body aches, dry cough, fevers x 1 week

CBC showed pancytopenia: wbc 1.97, Hgb 8.6, plts 12K

CT chest showed diffuse ground glass opacities and left
pleural effusion

Pt. was admitted and started on broad spectrum abx,
underwent thoracentesis with 1L bloody exudate and bone
marrow biopsy
Hospital Course

Pt. continued to worsen and was transferred to
ICU for acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS) and multi system failure

He expired in early December 2012
Final Diagnosis

Thoracentesis fluid flow cytometry analysis showed
monoclonal CD3-/CD4-/CD8-/CD16-/CD 56+
lymphocytes

Bone marrow biopsy confirmed the same results

These findings are consistent with:
Natural killer T cell lymphoma
Discussion
Lymphoma of the Ocular Adnexa

1%-2% of all lymphomas and 8% of extranodal
lymphomas arise in the ocular adnexa

10%-20% of orbital mass lesions are found to
be lymphoid tumors

Lymphomas are the most common orbital
malignancy

Lymphoma of the Ocular Adnexa

Most lymphomas arising in the ocular adnexa
are low-grade B-cell lymphomas

Natural Killer T (NK/T)-cell
lymphoma

NK/T-cell lymphoma, known as "lethal midline granuloma“, is a
rare disorder in the US

Type of extranodal lymphoma most commonly originating from
nasal passages and paranasal sinuses

More prevalent in Asia and South America where it comprises 5%
of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Avg age at presentation is 52 yrs

Virtually all cases contain monoclonal episomal EBV DNA

virus. Blood. 1993;81(10):2688.

Ocular complications of NK/Tcell lymphoma

Primary orbital/ocular NK/T lymphoma is a very rare
condition with only 8 cases reported

Orbital/ocular involvement is most commonly an
extension of nasal and paranasal sinus disease

Vision-threatening complications stem from orbital
inflammation or uveitis/vitritis
Ely A, et al. Orbital involvement in extranodal natural killer T cell lymphoma: an atypical case presentation and review
of the literature. Orbit. 2012 Aug;31(4):267-9.
Ocular complications

Hon et al retrospectively studied records of 35 consecutive patients
with NK/T lymphoma between 1996-2000

24 pts had primary nasal/sinus disease

6 out of 24 pts (25%) developed ocular complications:
3 pts had orbital infiltration only
1 pts with orbital infiltration and uveitis/vitritis
2 pt with uveitis/vitritis only

Intraocular involvement such as uveitis and vitritis is an important
feature predicting high probability of leptomeningeal or CNS
involvement
Hon et al. Vision-threatening Complications of Nasal T/NK Lymphoma. American Journal of Ophthalmology
2002; 134 (3): 407-410.
Prognosis

Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma is a very
aggressive disease

Patients with extranasal disease have median
survival of 4 months
