| Summary: |
Purpose: The aim of
this report is to present ocular condition associated
with systemic malignancy – bilateral diffuse uveal
melanocytic proliferation (BDUMP).
Material: A 70 years old female patient was
diagnosed due to the poor vision in the right eye, which
lasted 6 months and mild blurred vision in the left eye.
2 years previously she underwent radiotherapy due to the
lung cancer and bilateral cataract surgery. Based on
complete ophthalmic examination, ultrasound, fluorescein
angiography, indocyanine green angiography a diagnosis
of BDUMP was made. An oncological examination showed
regression of the lung cancer. The patient was treated
with steroids for 2 months. Follow-up time was 10 months.
Follow-up examination revealed only temporary
improvement of visual acuity then exacerbation of the
ocular lesions in both eyes.
Conclusion: BDUMP is accompanied by systemic
malignancy. The rareness of the conditions makes the
recognition difficult. |
