Abstract
Many patients with primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) exhibit central nervous system (CNS) involvement either at the diagnosis or during follow-up. The prognosis in the patients of PVRL with relapsed or refractory CNS remains extremely poor. We herein report a patient with refractory PVRL who had recurrence in the spinal cord despite receiving high-dose methotrexate-based chemotherapy and whole-brain radiotherapy. The patient surprisingly responded to tirabrutinib temporarily. We believe that this case suggests the utility of this new target therapy.
