“…A meta-analysis published in 2006 listed 16 cases reported between the years 1936 and 2005 [7]. Search of PubMed and Ovid using different combinations of the terms uveal metastasis, choroidal metastasis, testicular cancer, germ cell tumour, teratoma, choriocarcinoma, and chorioepithelioma revealed that 8 more cases have been reported since [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Most previously reported cases were choriocarcinomas, a subtype of NSGCT.…”

We report a case of a choroidal metastasis secondary to testicular mature teratoma, a subtype of non-seminoma germ cell tumours, in a young adult male. The choroidal metastasis was treated successfully with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin chemotherapy without the need for adjuvant radiotherapy. This represents a rare case of mature teratoma metastasizing to the choroid and one of very few reported testicular germ cell tumours to achieve normal or near normal visual acuity with chemotherapy alone despite severe macular disease at presentation.

The aim of this report is to contribute to the clinical understanding of choroid metastasis from testicular carcinoma. A young male patient presented with loss of vision in his left eye with ptosis and proptosis. Fundoscopy revealed bullous retinal detachment with dark hazy vitreous. The preliminary diagnosis of choroid carcinoma with vitreous involvement was made by an ophthalmologist. Later in the physical examination, there was a firm painless left testicular swelling. Testicular tumor markers were raised. Based on ultrasonography, MRI and PET-CT, a clinical diagnosis of left testicular carcinoma metastasizing to the left choroid and vitreous was made. A mixed germ cell tumor was reported on histopathological examination. After cisplatin-based chemotherapy, serum tumor markers normalized and vision improved. Exceptional choroidal and vitreous metastases with absence of other visceral and bony involvement constituted the presenting sign. Although rare, testicular carcinoma must be considered to metastasize to the eye, especially if loss of vision is the chief complaint.

“…Os órgãos mais apontados como sítio primário do tumor metastático uveal são pulmão em homens e mama em mulheres (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13) . Em números absolutos, o tumor de mama aparece como o tumor primário responsável pela maior parte das metástases oculares (28,6%) (9) .…”
