A case of ocular reticulum cell sarcoma (RCS) is described. Its relationship to systemic and central RCS and the eye signs, pathology and treatment are discussed. The importance of early diagnosis is stressed and vitreous biopsy should be considered in any unexplained vitritis in patients over the age of 40 years. Chemotherapy should be added to the usual dosage of radiation and may improve the survival period.
A group of patients is described who developed the clinical features of foveomacular retinitis. No causative factors were isolated, and all patients strongly denied any type of sun gazing. It is possible that there is a group of patients who have the features of foveomacular retinitis but have not had any direct exposure to the sun. These patients would then constitute a primary type of foveomacular retinitis, as opposed to a secondary type which has a known cause and is synonymous with solar retinopathy.
