The ophthalmologic manifestations of sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy.
Of 113 cases of sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, 13 patients had ophthalmic infiltrates. Eleven of the 13 had infiltrates in the orbital soft tissues, and five of these patients also had eyelid disease. One patient had infiltrates only within the eyelid, and one without disease in the orbit or eyelid had extensive infiltrates in the uveal tract. The microscopic differential diagnosis included a variety of lymphoreticular malignancies, storage diseases, histiocytosis X, rhinoscleroma, tuberculosis, and inflammatory pseudotumor of the orbit. These 13 patients with ophthalmic disease were similar clinically and pathologically to patients with sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy who did not have ophthalmic disease.
