Choroidal metastasis from tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma: a case report.
Choroidal metastases from renal carcinoma are rare. Most reported cases describe a clear cell carcinoma histologic subtype. Metastatic tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma to the choroid plexus is very exceptional.We report the case of a 31-year-old man with a history of tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma who presented two years later with metastatic disease to lungs and presternal soft tissue and three months after with choroidal metastasis revealed on ophtalmoscopic examination and magnetic resonance imaging.The case is discussed in the framework of the existing literature about the clinical features, treatment, and prognosis of this very rare condition.
