Iris metastasis of esophageal cancer

Yoshinobu Ichiki et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 2005 May.

Abstract

Ocular metastasis in patients with esophageal cancer is quite rare. Several cases have been reported in the literature, but no successful treatments for such metastases have ever been described. We herein report a case of esophageal cancer in which the ocular metastasis was controlled by systemic chemotherapy.
