Background: Intraocular lymphoma (IOL) is an uncommon ophthalmic malignancy and poses a diagnostic challenge. Uveitis associated with systemic lymphoma (USL) has been predominantly attributed to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and rarely reported with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) in the literature. Methods: Case report with review of the literature. Results: A 25-year-old healthy male presented with bilateral granulomatous panuveitis including vasculitis and discrete chorioretinal yellowish-white lesions. Macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) of both eyes revealed a disruption of ellipsoid and interdigitation zones over the areas of subretinal lesions as well as a small sub-retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) deposit in one eye. Thorough uveitis workup revealed clavicular, axillary and cervical lymphadenopathy, and biopsy of lymph nodes confirmed the diagnosis of nodular lymphocyte-predominant (NLP) HL. Six months later and after receiving chemotherapy, all symptoms and most of clinical signs resolved. Conclusions: Clinical features of USL do not differ between HL and NHL. However, the age of presentation may be much younger in HL. Ocular manifestations can precede systemic HL diagnosis, as shown in our patient. Therefore, USL should be part of the differential diagnosis of panuveitis. Paraneoplastic inflammation is thought be the cause of uveitis associated with HL. The sub-RPE deposit and disruption of ellipsoid and interdigitation zones on OCT have not been documented before as a manifestation of uveitis secondary to HL. In addition, the NLP subtype of HL was reported in only 1 case with uveitis in the literature.

Background: Calciphylaxis is a well-known entity in end-stage kidney disease and after renal transplant. Cases of nonuremic calciphylaxis (NUC) have also been reported, but data on this rare condition are mainly empirical. Objective: We discuss a case of NUC secondary to spontaneous tumour lysis syndrome in a patient who had chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and present a review of the literature to better characterize malignancy-associated NUC. Methods: We identified 12 published cases of malignancy-associated NUC. Results: This systematic review of malignancy-associated NUC did not show a relationship between the type of malignancy, the distribution of skin lesions, or mortality. However, distal more than proximal involvement seems to be more frequently associated with calcium phosphate imbalance. Conclusion: Clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for calciphylaxis when evaluating patients with cutaneous lesions developed in the setting of malignancy.

Objective: Presentation of rare case report of primary non-Hodgkin Lymphoma of temporal bone secondary to immunodeficiency after prolonged steroid administration in a diabetic patient. Then review the literature of similar case reports. Method: 49 years old female presented with hearing loss, facial paralysis and otalgia. Biopsy revealed high grade non Hodgkin’s B-lymphoma. She underwent chemotherapy and had remarkable response. Result: Rapidly progressive deafness, facial paralysis and otalgia are common presentations of external canal Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The disease is common in middle age, females and has a fair response to chemotherapy, good to radiotherapy. Surgery is an alternative method in isolated lesions or recurrent cases. Conclusion: High dose steroid and type II diabetes are potential risks for acquired immunodeficiency. External Auditory canal lymphoma is uncommon sequel. Chemotherapy is very effective in treatment of isolated cases without B symptoms
