Abstract
We herein report a middle-aged gentleman who initially presented with ocular adnexal mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) on the right eyelid. The lesion was excised and the patient was treated with radiation therapy. During the initial presentation, a PET CT was performed and did not reveal disease involvement beyond the eyelid. The patient presented 3 months later with ocular adnexal MCL of the contralateral eye. Re-evaluation using PET CT revealed a slight increase in the uptake in several lymph nodes and the spleen, which, after biopsy, confirmed systemic MCL. The patient was started on six cycles of chemotherapy. The patient also underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Approximately 80% of primary ocular adnexal lymphomas are B-cell in origin, with MCL being the rarest subtype constituting only 5% of B-cell ocular adnexal lymphomas. Despite its rarity, it is crucial for clinicians to detect the entity early and ensure rapid initiation of appropriate therapy.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma is a B-cell malignancy, which, in its classic form, usually involves lymph nodes and extranodal sites, and, among the extranodal sites, the gastrointestinal tract and the Waldeyer's ring are most prevalent. MCL is rarely reported in the ocular adnexa, a site more frequently affected by extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, which is a form of low-grade malignancy. The diagnosis of MCL presenting in the ocular adnexa requires special attention as its rarity in this location combined with the not uncommon CD5 negativity of the disease when occurring in the ocular adnexa, may lead the pathologist to overlook the diagnosis and misinterpret MCL as marginal zone B cell lymphoma, which has a totally different behavior. Herein, we present a case of primary bilateral conjunctival CD5-negative MCL in a patient having no other sites affected by lymphoma and we discuss possible diagnostic pitfalls.
