  • Title: Intravascular lymphoma presenting as bilateral panophthalmitis and retinal detachment in a dog.
    Author: Cullen CL, Caswell JL, Grahn BH.
    Journal: J Am Anim Hosp Assoc; 2000; 36(4):337-42. PubMed ID: 10914534.
    Abstract:
    A seven-year-old, spayed female boxer was presented for sudden blindness and red eyes of one week's duration. Ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral uveitis with complete bullous retinal detachments. Initial diagnostic testing failed to reveal evidence of systemic disease. Cytopathology of subretinal aspirates confirmed the presence of macrophages with intracytoplasmic retinal pigment, epithelial and choroidal pigment, and monocytes. Tentative diagnoses were idiopathic uveitis and retinal detachment. The dog was treated with immunosuppressive doses of prednisone. The retinas reattached and vision returned. By two months, the dog became blind and systemically ill. Postmortem and histopathological examinations revealed intravascular lymphoma in multiple organs, including the eyes.
