Choroidal metastasis is the most common malignant intraocular tumor. Its diagnosis in a patient with known lung cancer is usually easy. However, without any context of already known cancer, further elements are needed to guide the diagnosis. We report the case of a 47-year-old patient with a history of smoking who presented a choroidal metastasis of left lower pulmonary lobe adenocarcinoma discovered on imaging. Imaging techniques, mainly ultrasonography, CT scan, and MRI can help guide the diagnosis of choroidal metastasis even in the absence of a known origin initially.
脉络膜转移瘤是最常见的眼内恶性肿瘤。对于已知患有肺癌的患者，其诊断通常较为容易。然而，在没有任何已知癌症背景的情况下，则需要更多要素来指导诊断。我们报告一例47岁有吸烟史的患者，其影像学检查发现左下肺叶腺癌的脉络膜转移。即使最初没有已知的原发灶，影像学技术，主要是超声、CT扫描和MRI，也有助于指导脉络膜转移瘤的诊断。
