Fine needle aspiration biopsy had replaced vitrectomy to collect vitreous sample and external beam radiotherapy in combination with systemic chemotherapy was replaced by intravitreal methotrexate and rituximab, which regressed vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL) with no relapses or major ocular complications.

The purpose of this study is to report clinical, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and fluorescein angiogram/indocyanine green angiography (FA/ICG) findings in patients with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase (LCHAD) enzyme deficiency in two siblings. A 13-year-old girl and her 14-year-old brother presented with progressive decrease in central vision. Clinically, there were blond-looking fundi, diffuse retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) disruption/atrophy in the macula and peripheral retina with choriocapillaris atrophy in both of them.
