Abstract

Some of the lung cancers are diagnosed at metastatic stage and symptomatic ocular metastasis is very rare. Therefore, eye examination and orbital imaging are not routinely performed in lung cancer staging. Retinal detachment was detected in our patient who had visual loss in the left eye. In the imaging, choroidal metastasis was seen and the diagnosis of underlying lung adenocarcinoma was thought to be related. It is a rare presentation in the presence of eye-related symptoms that provides dramatic improvement in quality of life with early diagnosis and therefore should be kept in mind.

Özet

Akciğer kanserlerinin yarısına yakını metastatik evrede tanı almakta ve bunlarda semptomatik oküler metastaz oldukça ender görülmektedir. Bu nedenle rutin olarak akciğer kanseri evrelemesinde göz muayenesi ve orbital görüntüleme yapılmamaktadır. Sol gözde görme kaybı tanımlayan hastamızın muayenesinde retina dekolmanı saptandı. Yapılan görüntülemesinde ise, koroidal metastaz görülmesi üzerine altta yatan akciğer adenokanser tanısı ilişkili olduğu düşünüldü. Göz ile ilişkili semptom varlığında ender görülmekle birlikte, erken tanı ile yaşam kalitesinde dramatik iyileşme sağlayan ve bu yüzden akılda bulundurulması gereken bir prezentasyondur.
