Sumario:PURPOSE: To report two cases of vitreoretinal lymphoma that developed following primary testicular lymphoma and review the literature. OBSERVATIONS: Two men, one age 66 and the other age 77, both with a history of diffuse large B-cell testicular lymphoma, diagnosed one and three years previously, respectively, presented with vitritis and yellow-white subretinal infiltrates. Diagnostic vitrectomy in both cases revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Systemic work up in both cases showed no evidence of disease relapse elsewhere. Each were treated with intravitreal methotrexate injections. CONCLUSIONS: Vitreoretinal lymphoma can occur following primary testicular lymphoma, and may mimic primary vitreoretinal lymphoma. Monitoring of patients with a history of testicular lymphoma with regular dilated fundus examinations should be considered.
