Description
Summary:Abstract Case report We report a case of primary small-cell lymphocytic lacrimal gland lymphoma in a male diagnosed with primary antiphospholipid syndrome. These rare lymphomas are usually presented in the clinic as disseminations secondary to chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and the primary site is rare in the orbit. Discussion Non-Hodgkin lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors. Although treatment in the IE stage is usually radiotherapy, due to its association with antiphospholipid syndrome, systemic treatment with rituximab was administered.
