Spontaneous regression of choroidal metastasis from renal cell carcinoma
PURPOSE: To report a case of an elderly man who presented with a choroidal metastasis from renal cell carcinoma that spontaneously regressed prior to any local or systemic treatment. OBSERVATIONS: An 82-year-old man without a history of metastatic cancer was referred to the ocular oncology service f...

description | PURPOSE: To report a case of an elderly man who presented with a choroidal metastasis from renal cell carcinoma that spontaneously regressed prior to any local or systemic treatment. OBSERVATIONS: An 82-year-old man without a history of metastatic cancer was referred to the ocular oncology service for evaluation of a newly noted amelanotic choroidal lesion. Examination and imaging findings were concerning for choroidal metastasis. Systemic workup revealed previously undiagnosed widely metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The lesion spontaneously regressed prior to the initiation of any treatment for his tumor. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: This is a unique case of choroidal metastases from renal cell carcinoma that spontaneously regressed prior to medical or surgical treatment of the primary tumor. |
