ABSTRACT
AIM:
To report the efficacy of external local radiotherapy in the treatment of choroidal metastases. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
The study reports four cases of patients with choroidal metastases of lung neoplasm confirmed by the bronchial biopsy. Polychemotherapy was associated with external radiotherapy of the ocular metastases. DISCUSSION ANDCONCLUSION:
The external radiotherapy dose of 30 Gy to the posterior segment of the eye in 10 fractions was effective and seemed to be the most appropriate management of choroidal metastasis despite the use of the newest molecules in chemotherapy.
