Zusammenfassung

MALT-Lymphome der Orbita sind seltene orbitale Raumforderungen, die differenzialdiagnostisch v. a. von einem Pseudotumor orbitae, aber auch einer lymphoiden Hyperplasie, einem Pseudolymphom und anderen orbitalen Raumforderungen abgegrenzt werden müssen. Nach histologischer Sicherung sind ein Staging und – bei lokal begrenztem Befund – die Einleitung einer Strahlentherapie erforderlich. Anhand eines Fallbeispiels wird das Krankheitsbild, seine Differenzialdiagnostik und Therapie diskutiert.

Abstract

MALT lymphomas of the orbit are rare orbital tumors; the differential diagnosis needs to exclude inflammatory pseudotumors of the orbit, but also benign lymphoproliferations, pseudolymphomas, and other orbital neoplasms. After histological confirmation of the diagnosis staging is necessary, and – as long as the disease is localized exclusively in the orbit – radiation therapy should be started. The clinical picture of MALT lymphoma and its differential diagnosis and treatment are discussed with reference to an actual case.
