To report orbital metastasis as the presenting sign of a nonpalpable breast carcinoma in a 61-year-old woman.
Case report and literature review.
A uterine metastasis of unknown origin found 11 years prior was retrospectively identified as having the same histopathology as the breast and orbit tumors. Eight years after her orbital presentation, the patient was diagnosed with and underwent resection of a metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon, consistent with lobular adenocarcinoma of the breast.
This is a rare case of an orbital metastatic adenocarcinoma preceding the diagnosis of a nonpalpable primary breast carcinoma.
报告一名61岁女性以眼眶转移为首发症状的不可触及性乳腺癌病例。
病例报告及文献复习。
回顾性发现11年前发现的不明来源的子宫转移灶与乳腺及眼眶肿瘤具有相同的组织病理学特征。眼眶症状出现8年后,患者被诊断为结肠转移性腺癌,与乳腺小叶腺癌相符,并接受了手术切除。
这是一例罕见的眼眶转移性腺癌先于不可触及性原发性乳腺癌诊断的病例。
