AI Article Synopsis
- A 19-year-old woman experienced blurred vision in her left eye, leading to the diagnosis of bilateral non-granulomatous anterior uveitis with complications like vitritis and macular edema.
- During further examinations, a pathological study of a lymph node revealed she had nodular sclerosing and mixed cellularity Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL).
- After receiving chemotherapy with adriablastin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine, her ocular symptoms completely resolved, highlighting the importance of considering HL as a possible cause of ocular inflammatory conditions.
Article Abstract
Bilateral non-granulomatous anterior uveitis with left vitritis and macular edema were detected in a 19-year-old woman presenting with blurred vision in her left eye. Light microscopic study of the pathologic mediastinal lymph node that was detected via contrast computed tomography imaging during etiologic study revealed nodular sclerosing and mixed cellularity Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Ocular findings completely resolved with adriablastin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine chemotherapy treatment. Herein, it is emphasized that HL should be remembered as one of the differential diagnoses in patients with ocular inflammatory pathologies such as uveitis and vasculitis. The ocular findings of HL are discussed.

Background and objective Lymphomas can involve the gastrointestinal (GI) tract as a primary disease or as a secondary spread of systemic disease. The GI tract is a key site for extranodal lymphomas, with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) occurring in this region. This study aimed to analyze the demography, anatomic distribution, histological subtypes, and immunomorphological characteristics of all lymphomas with a primary GI presentation at a quaternary care hospital in southern India.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma rarely presents with circulating lymphoma cells (CL) at diagnosis. Previous studies were limited by small sample size precluding robust analysis. Hence, we evaluated the prognostic relevance of CL cells in newly diagnosed DLBCL patients.

Background: Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT) lymphoma or MALToma is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma arising in the gastric mucosa that has largely been associated with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. However, less than 10% of gastric MALTomas can occur with a negative H.

Environmental factors, largely influenced by human behavior, account for approximately 80% of malignant tumors. Risk factors associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) have been identified in various countries among both humans and domestic animals. This study aimed to investigate potential risk factors for NHL in dogs residing in the district of Porto, Portugal.

Follicular lymphoma (FL) represents the second most frequent type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the most common indolent histology. The disease course of FL is heterogeneous, likely resulting from diverse molecular and immunological features that drive a broad spectrum of clinical presentations. While some patients with low-volume and asymptomatic disease are suitable for observation, patients with high tumor burden, advanced-stage, or symptomatic disease more often necessitate treatment initiation.
