Abstract:
A 77-year-old man undergoing treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presented with blurred vision in his right eye, persisting for 2 months. Slit-lamp microscopy and fundus examination revealed inflammatory cells in the anterior chamber, severe vitreous opacities, and retinal vasculitis in the right eye. The patient underwent vitreous surgery with biopsy, and vitreous cytology confirmed a metastatic intraocular tumor originating from the HCC. Radiotherapy was administered to the right eye, with no recurrence of intraocular inflammation observed at 10 months post-irradiation.
