A solitary synchronous distant metastasis of newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) occurs in only a small number of patients. The available literature suggests a significant rise in long-term survival for these patients when resection of the bronchial carcinoma and the metastasis are feasible and performed. To demonstrate a multidisciplinary concept, we present the case of a patient with a peripheral NSCLC and a solitary synchronous intraocular metastasis. To our knowledge, this concept with curative intention has not been published before regarding a patient with an intraocular metastasis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
