Abstract

Intraocular tumors are uncommon and an intraocular metastatic carcinoma is extremely rare. An intraocular metastasis in adults most often originates from the breast or the lung. An intraocular lesion may be the first presentation of cancer and a search should be made to locate the primary tumor. To our knowledge, an intraocular metastasis of a bronchioloaveolar carcinoma has not reported in Korea. We report a case of a bronchioloalveolar carcinoma presenting with the initial symptom of a unilateral visual disturbance due to an intraocular metastasis.

저자들은 좌안의 시력 저하를 주소로 내원한 52세의 남자 환자에서 안구를 비롯한 간과 뇌 등에 전이성 병변을 동반한 세기관지폐포암 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
