Abstract
PurposeTo describe a unique case of a white male who presented with reduced visual acuity, growing bilateral iris pigment epithelial (IPE) cysts and granulomatous panuveitis, probably related to Hodgkin's lymphoma. ObservationsThe granulomatous panuveitis was reactive to corticosteroids, but the IPE cysts were not. After extensive work-up, the patient was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) mixed cellularity type with cervical and mediastinal lymph node involvement. After starting chemotherapy, the IPE cysts shrank. Conclusions and importanceTo our knowledge, IPE cysts have not been described in HL before. Therefore, this case can contribute to our knowledge of the relation between IPE cysts and hematological malignancy.
