Sumario:Igor Kozak,1,2 Erin G Reid31King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; 2University of California San Diego, Jacobs Retina Center at the Shiley Eye Center, La Jolla, CA, USA; 3University of California San Diego, Moores Cancer Center, AIDS Malignancy Consortium, La Jolla, CA, USAAbstract: We report a case of successive bilateral retinal vein occlusion in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive male with multicentric Castleman's disease treated successfully with a single injection of intravitreal bevacizumab. Castleman's disease should be a differential diagnosis of occlusive retinovascular disease and, occasionally, ocular manifestation can lead to systemic diagnosis.Keywords: retinal vein occlusion, Castleman's disease, intravitreal bevacizumab
