Abstract

Ocular findings are rarely the initial symptom of leukemia, although up to 90% of all leukemia patients have fundus changes during the course of the disease. Herein we report a relapsing acute lymphoblastic leukemia patient with the sole presentation of sudden visual loss and exudative retinal detachment. An 8-year-old boy with acute lymphoblastic leukemia developed sudden visual loss during his first remission period. Bullous retinal detachment with total afferent pupillary defect was observed. Orbital magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intraocular mass lesion; simultaneously obtained bone marrow and cerebrospinal fluid samples showed no evidence of leukemic cells. Following local irradiation, and systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy the mass disappeared. Local irradiation, and systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy effectively controlled the isolated ocular relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and eliminated the need for enucleation.

Özet

Löseminin seyrinde fundus değişiklikleri tüm hastaların %90’ında görülmesine rağmen, lösemide göz tutulumu nadiren ilk bulgu olarak karşımıza çıkar. Burada, ani görme kaybı ve eksudatif retina dekolmanının akut lenfoblastik lösemili bir olguda relapsın ilk bulgusu olarak saptandığını bildiriyoruz. Sekiz yaşında akut lenfoblastik lösemi tanısı alan bir erkek çocukta birinci remisyon döneminde ani görme kaybı gelişti. Total afferent pupiller defekt ile birlikte büllöz retina dekolmanı tespit edildi. Orbital manyetik rezonans görüntüleme ile intraokuler kitle lezyonu olduğu belirlendi. Eş zamanlı yapılan kemik iliği ve beyin omurilik sıvısı incelemelerinde lösemik tutulum saptanmadı. Lokal radyoterapi sonrası sistemik ve intratekal kemoterapi uygulandı, kitlede rezolusyon gelişti. Sonuç olarak, akut lenfoblastik lösemide görülebilen izole göz relapsının kontrol altına alınmasında lokal radyoterapi, sistemik ve intratekal kemoterapinin etkili olduğunu ve enükleasyon gereksinimini ortadan kaldırdığını belirtiyoruz.
