Treatments for Ocular Adnexal Lymphoma

Abstract: For MALT lymphomas, local control, disease-free survival, and overall survival are good with radiation treatment. The results of treatment of non-MALT lymphomas using radiotherapy also were good, but they were not as favorable as the treatment results of MALT lymphomas.

“…This finding is consistent with the current literature that supports the use of EBRT for most cases of primary OEL, especially for low-grade lymphomas such as EMZL, which represented the majority of cases in our series [38][39][40][41][42]. A newly published review by the American Academy of Ophthalmology on treatment of OEL has documented that EBRT has a very good effect on local control, disease-free survival and overall survival in patients with EMZL [43]. EBRT is also the treatment of choice for MCL, which, despite not being a low-grade lymphoma, has been found in some studies to be particularly radiosensitive [23,41,44,45].…”

“…Immunotherapy with Rituximab, as sole therapy, was used only in selected cases, namely very old patients with primary low-grade OEL in whom orbital involvement was not causing any quality-of-life issues [ 43 , 51 ]. These patients did not have HBV infection, and the maintenance treatment with Rituximab was done easily with very little morbidity; recurrence was recorded only in one case, after five years.…”

“…In the case of MALT lymphoma alone, the overall local control rate was 96% at 5 years and 86% at 10 years (range, 23.1-45 Gy; median D1.8, 31.8 Gy) [63]. As noted in many studies, radiation therapy shows a good local control rate, but it can cause some adverse effects, including cutaneous reactions, cataracts, dry eyes, macular degeneration, retinopathy, and corneal ulceration, particularly at doses of 30 Gy or higher [64][65][66][67].…”

“…This disease comprises 55% of orbital tumors and 8% of extranodal lymphomas [12]; the most frequent subtype is extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT). MALT lymphoma, which originates in B-cells, represents approximately 75% of primary ocular adnexal lymphomas [345]. Common sites of primary ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma (POML) are the orbit, conjunctiva, and lacrimal apparatus.…”
