Abstract

We report a case of an uncommon presentation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated plasma cell neoplasm in a patient with a history of prostate cancer and hairy cell leukemia (HCL) in remission after chemotherapy. The diagnosis of an EBV-associated plasma cell neoplasm was challenging as initially the findings were also compatible with a recurrence of HCL. We highlight the value of diagnostic vitrectomy to achieve the diagnosis. Our particular case demonstrates the importance of diagnostic pars plana vitrectomy and aqueous analyses in patients with uveitis of an unknown cause to confirm the diagnosis.
