Abstract
CONTRERAS IBANEZ, José Antonio; ROMERO CORES, Paula and BELTRAN RUIZ-HENESTROSA, Manuel. Ocular proptosis in a patient with adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2009, vol.62, n.1, pp.79-82. ISSN 0004-0614.
Objective: To reach information on a rare clinical finding secondary to an infrequent location of tumour dissemination in prostatic cancer. Methods: We present a case of an adult male with ocular left proptosis and history of prostatic cancer. Conclusions: In adults males, the prostatic cancer should be born in mind in the differential diagnosis of the masses in orbital location.
Keywords : Orbital metastasis; Prostatic adenocarcinoma; Ocular proptosis.
