Neuroendocrine tumor of the lung presenting as slowly progressive, painful bilateral choroidal masses

We describe a rare case of a bilateral choroidal metastasis from a slow growing neuroendocrine tumor of the lung that presented with slowly progressive bilateral vision loss and eye pain. Despite delays in diagnosis and treatment, eye pain resolved, and vision loss improved with systemic therapy alone.

Abstract

We describe a rare case of a bilateral choroidal metastasis from a slow growing neuroendocrine tumor of the lung that presented with slowly progressive bilateral vision loss and eye pain. Despite delays in diagnosis and treatment, eye pain resolved, and vision loss improved with systemic therapy alone.
