Abstract:
A case report and literature review of a unique presentation of metastatic breast cancer is provided. A 46-year-old patient with a history of breast carcinoma presented with a choroidal mass. Three days later she went on to develop bilateral simultaneous orbital cellulitis, investigation of which revealed underlying bony metastases from a breast primary. In order to diagnose underlying neoplasia, full history and examination is necessary when assessing patients with orbital inflammation.
