Abstract
Ocular adnexal lymphomas comprise 1% to 2% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas and about 8% of extranodal lymphomas. They are a heterogeneous group of malignancies, the majority of which are primary extranodal lymphoma with most (up to 80%) of the marginal zone of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue type (MA...

Abstract
In recent years, infectious agents have been increasingly recognised as an important pathogenetic factor for various malignant tumours of the ocular adnexa. Many of these viruses and bacteria affect the cell cycle and physiological apoptosis. Ocular adnexal lymphoma (OAL), especially extranodal marg...

Abstract
Proton beam therapy (PT) offers improved sparing of normal tissue, thus potentially reducing the risk for treatment related late sequelae and induction of secondary cancer. In addition, it can be an instrument for intensification of local therapy ("dose escalation") for disease currently not suffici...
