Excerpt

The immunocompromised population is known to be at greater risk for developing primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) mostly of B-cell origin [2, 9]. There is evidence showing an increased risk of T-cell lymphoma in the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive population [1, 9]. Primary central nervous system anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PCNS-ALCL), a T-cell lymphoma, is exceedingly rare and the reported cases have demonstrated an aggressive and fatal course [4]. To our knowledge, there is no reported case of PCNS-ALCL arising from the optic nerve, specifically in the HIV-infected population. …
