Abstract

We aimed to present a patient with bilateral choroidal metastasis following bladder carcinoma due to its rarely occurence. A 56 years old male patient was consulted to our clinic complaining of blurred vision and vision loss. Best corrected vision acuity was measured as 0.3 in right eye and 0.6 in left eye. Fundus examination showed serous detachment in superior temporal quadrant including temporal edge of macula in right eye and in the inferior temporal quadrant of the left eye. Optic cohorence tomography showed a choridal mass elavating retina. In orbital MRIG an ellipsoidal mass with 10x5 mm size was detected in the posteriolateral part of the right globe. Methastasis in the lung and scalp tissue were detected with the patient who had been following for 3 years for bladder carcinoma. We speculated that choroidal mass and serous detachment could be owing to the metastasis of bladder carcinoma. Two weeks after the first dose of chemotherapy and radiotherapy patients died due to systemic metastases. Choroidal metastases are the most common intraocular tumours. Choroidal metastasis, secondary to urothelial carcinoma, is rarely seen and mostly effects individuals that are old and male.

Özet

Mesane karsinomu tanısıyla takip edilen bilateral koroid metastazı gelişen hastayı nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunmayı amaçladık. Ellialtı yaşında erkek hasta her iki gözde gelişen görme azlığı ve bulanık görme şikayetleri ile kliniğimize konsülte edildi. Hastanın en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği snellen eşeli ile sağ gözde 0.3, sol gözde 0.6 olarak tespit edildi. Fundus muayenesinde sağ göz makula temporalini de içine alacak şekilde üst temporal kadranda, sol gözde alt temporal kadranda seröz dekolman bölgeleri izlendi. Optik koherens tomografide (OKT), retinayı eleve eden koroidal kitle izlendi. Orbital Manyetik Rezonans Görüntülemede (MRG) sağ glob posterolateralinde 4x2 mm boyutlarında elipsoidal kitle izlenmekteydi. 3 yıldır mesane karsinomu nedeniyle takip edilen hastanın takiplerinde akciğer ve skalp dokusunda metastazları mevcuttu. Olgumuzda gelişen koroidal kitle ve seröz dekolmanın mesane karsinomu kaynaklı metastaz nedeniyle oluştuğunu düşündük. 1 doz kemoterapi ve radyoterapi alan hasta koroidal metastaz tanısı aldıktan iki hafta sonra sistemik metastatik yayılım nedeniyle eksitus oldu. Koroid metastazları en sık görülen intraoküler tümörleri oluşturmaktadır. Ürotelyal karsinomlara sekonder koroidal metastazlar nadir görülmekte olup daha çok yaşlı ve erkek bireyleri etkilemektedir.
