title: Multiple bilateral choroidal metastatic tumors from a small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To report one case of multiple and bilateral choroidal tumors from a poorly differentiated small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of unknown primary.
  
  
  METHODS
  The case of a 30-years-old white female who developed multiple and bilateral choroidal tumors from a poorly differentiated small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of unknown primary is presented.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The patient had a disseminated disease and died 6 months after. The oncologic work-up, including physical examination, laboratory and radiographic study, fails to identiy the primary site.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Intraocular involvement from a poorly differentiated small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of unknown primary has not yet reported. We describe thic case together with a review of the literature. (Eur J Ophthalmol 2005; 15: 148-52).
