ABSTRACT
We report a case of relapsed sporadic Burkitt lymphoma (BL) presenting as an isolated infiltrative optic neuropathy. This is a single-patient, retrospective case report of a patient seen by the ophthalmology service at our institution. To our knowledge, our case is the first to report isolated infiltrative optic neuropathy associated with sporadic BL as the sole manifestation of recurrence. The possibility of disease relapse should be considered for patients with a history of lymphoreticular malignancy who present with acute visual symptoms suggestive of optic neuropathy.
