Ophthalmologic manifestations of genitourinary diseases.
There are several urologic disorders which also involve the eye and orbit. We have compiled examples of these and reviewed the literature. Metastasis from genitourinary malignancy (including neuroblastoma), Wilms tumor, Reiter syndrome, tuberous sclerosis, von Hippel-Lindau disease, and oxalosis may all have ophthalmologic manifestations. Urologists need to be aware of these and obtain appropriate consultation in order to fully care for patients with these diseases.
