Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
A 68-year-old woman with a recent history of blurring in the left eye had undergone mastectomy for breast cancer 20 years ago. A series of bone metastases started 5 years after her diagnosis. Examination of the optic nerve head of the left eye revealed an isolated peripapillary mass. Indocyanine green angiography displayed vessels within the mass, and fluorescein angiography demonstrated hyperfluorescence of the mass from vascular leakage plus lobular spots of blocked fluorescence. B-scan ultrasound revealed a hyperechoic-elevated nodular mass on the optic disc. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography displayed a mass of spherules. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain demonstrated metastatic tumors. She was diagnosed with an optic disk metastasis from her breast carcinoma. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
