title: Choroidal eye metastases from (recurrent) primary peritoneal carcinoma: case report and review of the literature.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Choroidal metastases from gynaecological primary are extremely rare. There is no documented case in the literature of choroid metastasis in a patient with primary peritoneal carcinoma (PPC).
  
  
  RESULTS
  We describe the first case of a 54-year-old woman with a history of borderline mucinous tumour who presented 17 months later with PPC and 21 months after with recurrent disease metastatic to the eye, and review pertinent literature.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  High index of suspicion is warranted when patients with history of primary peritoneal carcinoma present with visual complaints in order to treat and/or relieve symptomatology from metastatic eye disease.
