ABSTRACT
There are multiple possible intraocular manifestations in patients with systemic neoplasms. At first line there are uveal, retinal and vitreous metastases from carcinomas, melanomas and lymphomas. In patients with von Hippel Lindau syndrome or familiar adenomatous polyposis coli (FAP), Gardner or Turcot syndromes, fundus examinations can help in the primary diagnosis and thereby facilitate the early detection of systemic neoplasms such as cerebral and spinal haemangioblastoma, kidney or bowel cancer. Furthermore there are rare ocular paraneoplastic syndromes such as the cancer- or melanoma-associated retinopathies (CAR/MAR), the paraneoplastic optic neuropathy (PON) and the bilateral diffuse melanocytic proliferation (BDUMP) that develop secondary to systemic malignancies and can be the primary manifestation.
