Orbital metastasis is a rare entity in oncology. With increasing awareness and advancement, patients with initial ocular presentation can be diagnosed and treated. Ocular metastasis is more common in breast cancer followed by lung cancer. Lung cancer with ocular presentation generally have poor prognosis because of difficult diagnosis, Vision impairment and delayed management. Here, we report one such case of 59 year old female presented with painful periorbital swelling in left eye for 3 months with no pulmonary symptoms. On evaluation, she was diagnosed as ocular metastasis with primary being lung adenocarcinoma. Through this case, we enlighten the epidemiology, presentation, clinical features and evaluation of such patients which might help clinicians in further management.
眼眶转移瘤在肿瘤学中是一种罕见的疾病。随着认识的提高和医学的进步,以眼部首发症状就诊的患者能够得到诊断和治疗。眼部转移瘤在乳腺癌患者中更为常见,其次是肺癌。以眼部症状为表现的肺癌患者通常预后较差,原因在于诊断困难、视力损害以及治疗延迟。在此,我们报告一例59岁女性患者,其左眼眶周疼痛性肿胀3个月,无肺部症状。经评估,她被诊断为眼部转移瘤,原发肿瘤为肺腺癌。通过这个病例,我们阐述了此类患者的流行病学、临床表现、临床特征及评估方法,这可能有助于临床医生进行进一步的治疗。
