Abstract
Sarcoid-like reaction (SLR) has been reported in patients with solid tumor malignancies, lymphomas, and patients receiving immunotherapy. SLR is often incidentally found during positron emission tomography/computed tomography scans as hilar and/or mediastinal lymphadenopathy. SLR has also been found in the lung, spleen, bone marrow, and skin. Biopsy of these lesions shows noncaseating granulomas. When systemic criteria are not met for sarcoidosis, these noncaseating granulomas are termed SLR. We present the first case in the literature of a case of orbital SLR in a patient with concomitant diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and inverted papilloma of the maxillary sinus. This case highlights the importance of including malignancy in the differential for the presence of a noncaseating granuloma in the orbit.
