Popis: | Eyelid localisation of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is rare, and even more so when it is bilateral. We report a 58 year-old man who presented with an eyelid localisation of lymphoplasmacytoid lymphoma. The initial treatment was chemotherapy with good improvement but the relapse lead us to give radiotherapy with no further relapse 20 months later. Radiotherapy is the current treatment of localised eyelid lymphomas with excellent results. The prognosis is related to the initial staging and the 10-year survival rate is close to 80%. |
