[Localization and clinical characteristics of the ocular metastases of solid extraocular tumours].
Localization and clinical characteristics of the ocular metastases of solid tumours are presented. Choroid is the most common localization site of these metastases, however they may involve each ocular structure. In the most cases they are diagnosed in patients with earlier recognized cancer, but in 12-40% of the patients ocular metastasis is a first sign of the neoplasm. Therapy is focused to save the eye function or last but not least to improve patient's status.
