RPE Adenocarcinoma as the Presenting Sign of Bronchogenic Carcinoma : Diagnostic Dilemma in the Management of a Case

Abstract EN

Neoplasms of retinal pigment epithelium are rare and must be differentiated from choroidal melanoma.

The possibility of a metastatic disease with possible primary sites as lung, breast, or kidney should be ruled out.

Herein we report a case of adenocarcinoma arising from the RPE with a lung lesion suspicious of bronchogenic carcinoma.

In this paper, ocular symptoms were the first sign of a systemic malignancy.
