Description |
The optic disc is an uncommon location for metastasis and rarely the presenting sign of an underlying malignancy. There were 13 previous cases reported in the literature of lung carcinoma metastatic to the optic disc, however no cases of documented adenocarcinioma of the lung were found with an extensive literature review. Most cases were a result of small cell lung cancer and others lacked pathological details on the type of lung cancer. |
