Abstract:
Choroidal metastases, although uncommon, are a well-recognized complication of malignant disease and their development is usually associated with other soft tissue metastases and a poor prognosis. About one-third of choroidal metastases arise from carcinoma of the bronchus. They are rarely solitary. Histologically confirmed solitary choroidal metastasis from squamous carcinoma of the bronchus has not been previously reported in the literature. We describe such a case.
