Bladder cancers account about 3% of malignant tumors and often metastasize to regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs and skeleton. Metastases in the area of the orbital region are very rare. When eyelid swelling, proptosis, diplopia, or ocular pain occurs, an underlying neoplastic process should always be suspected. Due to the rapid progression of orbital metastases, diagnosis and early initiation of palliative therapy is important.
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.
