The aim of the present study is to investigate the clinical features and the risk factors characteristic of choroidal metastasis, which is known as the most common malignant neoplasm of the adult eye.A systematic ophthalmologic examination together with angiography and echography were performed in 106 patients with carcinoma.10% of patients showed choroïdal metastasis. Breast and bronchogenic carcinoma were the most common primary tumor. 82% of cases died within a mean 6.5 months. Clinical, angiographic, echographic and histopathologic features of such metastasis were described.The importance of an early diagnosis of such metastasis are raised.
