Solitary ovarian metastasis from ocular melanoma.
A patient with a solitary metastasis to the ovary from choroid melanoma that had been diagnosed 9 years before was examined. In the cases that were reported in the literature, there was a long interval between the primary and the solitary metastasis, but this should be considered in the follow-up examinations of patients with ocular melanomas.
