Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Prostate carcinoma metastasizes usually to lymph nodes and bone. Its metastases to the orbital cavity remain very rare.
OBSERVATION: We report here the case of an 80-year-old man diagnosed with a non-metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma 9 months earlier, who was found to have an orbital metastasis revealed by a proptosis of his left eye. He received hormonal therapy, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
DISCUSSION: Orbital metastases from prostate carcinoma have many similarities to other orbital metastases in their presentation. Their diagnosis is easily done when there is a history of a primary tumor. Presenting symptoms include proptosis, limitation of eye movements, diplopia and decreased vision.
CONCLUSION: Through this case report and a review of literature, we discuss the incidence, the clinical presentation and the management of these tumors.
