2. Discussion:
• Systemic malignancy ophthalmic complaint general
approach and considerations
• Ophthalmic conditions need TRO underlying malignancy
• Metastasis & Infiltration (lymphoma & leukemia)
• Orbital
• Intraocular
• Neuroopthalmic
• Adult VS paeds
• Metastasis
• Primary breast VS lung VS prostate Ca- the difference
• General approach for DDx, workup and treatment
• Treatment related ocular complications
• ChemoT, RadioT, Newer agents
• Paraneoplastic
3. Approach: Cancer + Ophthalmic Complaint
• BOV
• Anatomy: cornea & ocular surface – optical media – retina &
ON & uveal – visual pathway
• Diplopia
• Anatomy: EOM – NMJ – CN – Brainstem – Cerebral cortex
• Pain & redness & swelling
• Characterization of symptoms
• Ocular VS Orbital
• Infection VS Inflammation
4. Classical Pain @Eye
• Periocular pain with headache n&v + seeing halo then
BOV acute glaucoma
• Severe dull deep boring pain, unable to sleep and
worsened with eye movement scleritis
• Sudden sharp aching pain on eye blinking,
+photophobia +tearing, and relieved with eye closure
corneal erosion
• Mild-mod eye pain on movement but ++ BOV optic
neuritis
• Pain at temporal forehead with tender on touch
giant cell artertis
16. Orbital VS Uveal Metastasis
• Similarity
• Mostly known Ca, 10-20% unknown
• Can be asymptomatic (esp uveal)
• Hematogenous spread
• Primary > breast & lung, Ca > melanoma/sarcoma
• Difference
• Presentation & different ser of DDx
• Primary prostate >orbit
• Bilateral @uveal (esp breast mets) >> orbit (rare)
• Orbital mets can considers FNAC/ tissue biopsy (even known Ca) VS uveal mets
• Orbital mets > complete removal if well circumscribed tumour
• DDx orbital mets: benign orbital tumors, lymphomas/leukemia, pseudotumor,
infection/inflam
• DDx uveal mets: ifx/inflame/retinitis choroiditis granuloma, primary uveal tumour
e.g. nevus/melanoma/hemangioma/osteoma, sclerochoroidal calcification,
RRD/choroidal detachment/scleritis, CNV/SRH-fibrosis, CSCR, VKH
17. Orbital Metastasis
• 1–13% of all orbital tumors, 2–5% of patients with systemic malignancies
• Orbital symptoms- 50% +symptoms, orbit bone/tissue/EOM/ON, eyelids
• Red flag: recurrent chalazion/nodules, fleshy mass/recurrent pterygium
• Location: more lateral n anterior orbit, opposite I M SLow
• Primary: breast >lung > prostate, Ca>melanoma
• prostate Ca > bone mets
• breast Ca and melanoma > orbital fat and muscle mets
• Ix: Imaging/MRI, FNAC, surgical biopsy (incisional/excisional)
• MRI: vs orbital fat, hypointensity on T1 hyperintensity on T2 w enhancement.
• +- bone erosion
• rarely cystic and calcific changes
• Rx: radiation for symptoms (meaningful option)
• > debulking, chemoT
• 20–40Gy of 1–2 weeks
18. Choroidal Metastasis
• Choroid: > macular or perimacular region
• creamy yellow (+-gray/white), elevated mass deep to the retina in the choroid
• SRD +/- flat & ill defined mass (flat metastasis)
• Leopard skin (RPE pigment clumps)
• +-dilated peribulbar vessel @same area
• VS Melanoma
• Thickness: Mets (esp breast ca) 2-3mm < melanoma (5.5mm)
• Morphology: Mets > yellow/homogenous, <RPE disturbance
• B scan: Mets > echogenic/dense & low height:base (>flat), melanoma echolucent/acoustic
hollowness
• A scan (reflectivity): Mets > high
• Rx
• Factors: symptoms, systemic status, lesion (location/laterality/number)
• observe if asymptomatic w known primary & controlled
• multifocal/bilateral- plaque RT (2days), EBRT (daily radiation for four weeks)
• unifocal- plaque RT
• new: breast CA hormonal therapy with the new aromatase inhibitors
19. Choroidal Metastasis- Workup
• 1st sign of systemic malignancy in 1/3 cases
• 10% of cancer +uvea mets (breast & lung)
• Photo: wide-field
• A- and B-scan: echogenic/acoustic solid, ill defined +- lobulated,
irregular higher reflectivity, SRD
• AF: tumour hypo, SRF hyper, lipofusin deposit hyper
• OCT: macular involvement/SRF, lumpy bumpy choroidal surface (EDI),
choriocapillaris compression, and photoreceptor loss
• FFA: rule out simulating lesions
• Mets: >hypoF @early FFA later diffuse patchy hyperF (multifocal leaks in the
RPE with SRD)
• Melanoma > double circulation pattern and prominent early choroidal filling
• FNAC & tissue biopsy if unsure
23. Paediatric Metastasis
• Orbital mets
• Neuroblastoma (most)
• Esp. adrenal
• Rapid proptosis (UL/BL) with eyelid ecchymosis
• Orbital CT (mass + bone destruction) + abd CT (adrena)
• Others: Wilms tumor (nephroblastoma) & Ewing
sarcoma
24.
25. Leukemia & Lymphoma
• Leukemia ophthalmic involvement: “primary” or direct leukemic infltration, and “secondary” or
indirect involvement. Direct leukemic infltration 3 patterns: masquerade uveitis, OD/ON +- CN,
orbit.
• Rx systemic vs local:
• - systemic chemotherapy and biological treatments, irradiation
• - intravitreal injections of dexamethasone, anti-VEGF, or methotrexate (MTX)
•
• Primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) is closely related to primary central nervous system
lymphoma (PCNSL), and is an aggressive malignancy. In contrast, primary uveal lymphomas are
more typically indolent, similar to ocular adnexal or orbital lymphomas in terms of
aggressiveness.
• diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the subtype that is most commonly found in PVRL
• extranodal marginal zone lymphomas (EZML), more typical of orbital lymphoma, as well as
many uveal lymphoma
31. Intraocular Uveal Lymphoma
• Amelanotic, amelanotic yellow uveal
(iris/CB/choroid) stromal mass
• +- a/w orbital/conj lymphoma
• +- overlap with primary VR lymphoma (if advanced)
• DDx: metastasis , birdshot choroiditis, or
sarcoidosis
• Rx
• Partial response to steroid
• Responds well to low doses of radiotherapy (1500-2000
cGy)
• Systemic for chemoT
32. Vitreous biopsy- Lymphoma
• Dry PPV/undiluted vitreous or subretinal fluid
• cytopathology including immunohistochemical
studies for subclassification of the cells, flow
cytometry, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
analysis for gene rearrangements and the ratio of
interleukin-10 (IL-10) to IL-6
• Specimens that reveal malignant lymphocytic cells
establish the diagnosis and evaluation of cell
surface markers may allow for subclassification of
the tumor.
34. ChemoT & Eye
• Temporal relationship chronological correlation
• Bone marrow suppression
• Infection
• Hematological d/o: anemia thrombocytopenia
• Tamoxifen for breast Ca
• Estrogen dependent
• Keratopathy & retinopathy (+-deposit), cataract
• Imatinib for leukemia
• Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) CML/ALL
• Fluid retention with periorbital edema
• Rituximab for lymphoma
• B cell NHK lymphoma, CD20 Ag Ab
• Min ocular SE, conjunctivitits
36. Others & Newer agents
• breast Ca with mets: hormonal therapy with the
new aromatase inhibitors
• Primary intraocular lymphoma: intravitreal
rituximab
• Graft-vs-host disease: BM transplantation
39. Multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 2B
• AD (chr 10q11)
• medullary carcinoma of the thyroid gland,
pheochromocytoma, and mucosal neuromas
• marfanoid habitus, thickened corneal nerves,
conjunctival and eyelid neuromas and
keratoconjunctivitis sicca
40. Paraneoplastic Syndrome (PNS)
• Def: cancer-related SSx
• not related to mass effect but
• humoral (hormone/cytokine) from tumour, or
• immune reaction to tumour
• Common sources: lung, breast, ovaries, lymphoma
• Types:
• Neurological: Lambert Eaton/MG (small cell lung ca), myositis,
spinal cord, CNS
• Hematological: low/high RBC/Hb/hypercoagulopathy
• Endocrine: high Ca/ACTH-Cushing/ADH-SIADH/insulin-hypoG/
aldosterone/carcinoid (serotonin)
• Muco-cutaneous
• Ocular: retinopathy (CAR/MAR)
• Ix: autoimmune Ab (anti-Hu/Ri/Yo/Ma/Amphiphysin/CVS)
from IMR, whole body CT scan/PET
41. Visual paraneoplastic syndromes
• Circulating antibody affecting retinal protein (cross
reaction with tumour antigen)
• The first affects photoreceptors, the second is
thought to affect bipolar cell function, and the third
targets the uveal tract
• carcinoma-associated retinopathy
• melanoma-associated retinopathy
• bilateral diffuse melanocytic uveal proliferation
• paraneoplastic optic neuropathy (PON)
42. Paraneoplastic retinopathy
CAR (cancer-associated retinopathy)
• Ab against recoverin/retinal protein
• Peripheral + central visual loss (rapid/progress)
• Arterial narrowing with only min/no pigment
• ERG- Extinguished
MAR (melanoma-associated retinopathy)
• ERG- negative waveform
Others
• Autoimmnue retinopathy
• BDUMP (BL diffuse uveal melanocytic proliferation)-
choroidal lesion + ERD + PSCC + iris/CB cyst
• Acute exudative polymorphous vitelliform maculopathy
