Bilateral Multiple Retinal Detachments Associated with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: Masquerading as Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Disease

Purpose We report a case of intraocular involvement in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma masquerading as Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease.Methods A 48-year-old woman presented with blurred vision in both eyes, fever, and hearing disturbance and underwent a complete ophthalmologic and systemic evaluation.Results Ophthalmologic examination showed bilateral exudative retinal detachment and signs of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease. However, considering her generalized symptoms, systemic evaluation was performed before administering systemic steroid pulse therapy. In a systemic investigation, the patient was diagnosed with intraocular involvement in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. After systemic chemotherapy, her bilateral visual acuity improved to 20/25 and the bilateral serous retinal detachment resolved.Conclusion In cases with prominent systemic symptoms, comprehensive systemic evaluation should be performed to rule out severe systemic conditions, such as malignancies.
