Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma of the Lacrimal Gland - A Case Report

description | MALT lymphoma of the ocular adnexa, an indolent B-cell lymphoma, rarely affects the lacrimal gland. The case of a 73-year-old
man with ptosis and edema of the left upper eyelid, due to lacrimal gland swelling, is presented. Clinical evaluation and
imaging examination led to excision biopsy. The mass histopathology, presenting organized lymphoid tissue, composed mainly
of small B-cells, accompanied by immunophenotypic characteristics, was compatible with MALT lymphoma. Treatment with monoclonal
antibody against CD-20 achieved a successful long-term disease control (4 years). The diagnostic approach is described and
the pathological features and clinical signs of this rare entity are discussed, based on recent literature. The indolent clinical
course of this lymphoma, either remaining localized or disseminating to other mucosal sites, is a distinct characteristic
affecting prognosis. |
