“…Carcinomas of the breast 1,2 and the bronchial system are the most common sites of origin, 3-6 but there are also descriptions of choroidal melanoma, 7-9 retinoblastoma, 10 liposarcoma, 11 cutaneous melanoma, 12 hepatocellular carcinoma, 13-16 carcinoma of the cervix, 17,18 leiomyosarcoma, 19 urachal tumor, 20 Ewing's sarcoma, 21,22 angiosarcoma, 23 renal cell carcinoma, 24,25 adenocarcinoma of the salivary gland, 26 thymic car- cinoma, 27 transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, 28,29 pleural mesothelioma 30 and carcinoid 31-36 as primary neoplasms. The metastasis of a carcinoid tumor of the intestinal tract was the most uncommon tumor in our group.…”

“…Kinderman et al [4] presented a patient with eyelid metastasis as the first manifestation of a renal cell carcinoma. Schmidt et al [5] reported a renal cell cancer metastatic to the eyelid that recurred after excision. The clinical picture of a ‘recurrent chalazion’ and clear cell features on histopathology are typically suspicious of a sebaceous gland carcinoma.…”

Purpose: To describe the use of debulking surgery with adjuvant external beam irradiation as an eyelid-sparing treatment for renal cell carcinoma. Design: Interven tional case report. Methods: A 63-year-old male presented with a right upper lid tumor. He had a history of renal cell carcinoma and pulmonary metastasis treated with surgery and systemic chemotherapy. The eyelid tumor was biopsied, followed by debulking surgery and external beam radiation therapy to treat this metastatic tumor. Results: Histopathological evaluation of the excised tumor revealed a metastatic renal cell carcinoma, clear cell type. At 4 months’ follow-up, he had no evidence of recurrence or radiation oculopathy. He was pleased with his cosmetic result. Conclusions: Meta static renal cell carcinoma presenting in the eye and orbit can be the initial manifestation of the primary tumor. It is important to include this tumor in the differential diagnosis of recurrent eyelid lesions. Debulking surgery followed by external beam radiation therapy can be used to control the tumor with an eyelid-sparing cosmetic result.

“…At the time of the second CT scan, the suspicion of orbital metastasis was founded on the fact that both kidney and breast tumours can give rise to secondary orbital localisations presenting as Tolosa-Hunt syndrome [19,20,21,22,23,24]. …”

Purpose: To evaluate a case of orbital actinomycosis presenting as Tolosa-Hunt syndrome in a patient with a history of carcinomas of the kidney and breast. Methods: A woman with ingravescent painful ophthalmoplegia was brought to our observation. Brain and orbital and total body CT scans showed the presence of two orbital neoformations and a miliary pattern of dissemination in the lung. The initial diagnosis, which pointed to secondary localisations of the previous kidney and breast tumours, was changed to orbital and pulmonary actinomycosis following microbiological analysis of lung biopsy samples. Results: Prolonged antibiotic therapy with synthetic penicillin completely resolved the case. Conclusions: Actinomycosis is a very rare infection that may also affect the orbit and its association with a pulmonary dissemination is highly unusual. It is important to consider this type of infection among the causes of painful ophthalmoplegia.

Abstract: The in toto excision of an orbital metastasis of a renal cell carcinoma is a valid therapeutic approach regarding the tumor morphology and the achievable postoperative symptomatic relief.
