PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical features, risk factors, and prognosis of the intraocular recurrence in primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL).

DESIGN: Retrospective case-control study.

PARTICIPANTS: Ninety-seven eyes of 51 patients diagnosed with PVRL between December 2011 and January 2021 were enrolled in this study. Fourteen patients among them had experienced intraocular recurrence.

METHODS: Data on demographic and ophthalmic characteristics, results of diagnostic tests, treatments, and prognosis of intraocular recurrence and nonrecurrence for PVRL patients were collected and compared. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine the cutoff values.

MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Clinical features and risk factors.

RESULTS: Fourteen (19 eyes) of 51 PVRL patients had intraocular recurrences, resulting in a recurrence rate of 27.5% over a mean follow-up period of 42.5 months. No difference was observed in central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) relapse rate (54.3% vs. 64.3%, P = 0.52) or median time to CNSL (36.5 months; 95% confidence interval [CI], 24.6-48.3 vs. 37.3 months; 95% CI, 24.8-49.8; P = 0.78) between intraocular nonrecurrence and intraocular recurrence groups. Furthermore, there were no statistically significant differences in the survival outcomes, such as mortality (28.6% vs. 29.7%, P = 1.00) and median overall survival (70.8 months; 95% CI, 54.0-87.7 vs. 59.2 months; 95% CI, 44.8-73.6; P = 0.30), between these 2 groups. Younger onset age (odds ratio [OR] 0.90; 95% CI, 0.84-0.98; P = 0.010), isolated PVRL (OR, 35.3; 95% CI, 2.08-600.0; P = 0.014), and no history of intravitreal chemotherapy (OR, 7.72; 95% CI, 1.37-43.6; P = 0.021) were identified as independent risk factors for intraocular recurrences. Of the patients with intraocular recurrence, 23.6% were asymptomatic and were diagnosed during routine follow-up. The rate of interleukin-10 (IL-10)/interleukin-6 > 1 was significantly lower than that at diagnosis (43.8% vs. 92.3%, P = 0.008). However, the rate of IL-10 ≥ 50 pg/mL was high (81.3%) and not significantly different from that at diagnosis (92.3%, P = 0.61).

CONCLUSIONS: This study did not identify an impact of intraocular recurrence on CNS manifestations or survival outcomes in patients with PVRL. Younger patients have a higher risk of intraocular recurrence, and combined systemic and intravitreal chemotherapy may reduce intraocular recurrence. Regular ophthalmic follow-up and IL-10 testing are recommended to detect intraocular recurrence.
