Metástasis ocular bilateral en cáncer de mama sincrónico: reporte de un caso y revisión de la literatura

Orbital metastases are rare; the most frequent primary cancer is breast cancer, even more so the luminal type, in which the pathogenesis may be due to a cellular tropism caused by estrogens produced by periorbital fat; the definitive diagnosis is histological, management is palliative and the prognosis poor. We present the case of an adult, nulliparous female patient with synchronous bilateral breast cancer, who after 3 years of management presentsdiscomfort in her eyelids and blurred vision; imaging studies and an eyelid biopsy are performed, confirming metastasis. The case is discussed at the Medical Board and it is decided to manage with docetaxel.

Abstract

Orbital metastases are rare; the most frequent primary cancer is breast cancer, even more so the luminal type, in which the pathogenesis may be due to a cellular tropism caused by estrogens produced by periorbital fat; the definitive diagnosis is histological, management is palliative and the prognosis poor. We present the case of an adult, nulliparous female patient with synchronous bilateral breast cancer, who after 3 years of management presentsdiscomfort in her eyelids and blurred vision; imaging studies and an eyelid biopsy are performed, confirming metastasis. The case is discussed at the Medical Board and it is decided to manage with docetaxel.
