Choroidal melanoma of left eye with very early liver metastasis.

Uveal melanoma is a cancer (melanoma) of the eye involving the iris, ciliary body, or choroid (collectively referred to as the uvea). The liver is a frequent site for metastasis in patients with uveal melanoma. The interval between the diagnosis of the uveal melanoma and the diagnosis of the metastatic lesion can vary. Despite therapy, the median survival of those with liver metastasis is 5-7 months. We report here a rare case of choroidal melanoma in a 45-year-old male smoker presented with liver metastasis within just 8 months after completion of initial treatments consists of enucleation of eye and 3 Dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT). The metastasis is an incidental finding on imaging after having some vague symptoms. This type of very early metastasis after completing initial treatment is very rare and proves the aggressiveness of the disease.
