Undetected Ocular Mass as a Critical Alert for Identifying Uveal Metastasis
Conclusions and Importance: Although very rarely, pathological changes in the uvea may indicate a metastatic occurrence that needs to be considered in the differential diagnosis.

It is important to undergo a wide ophthalmological examination, which in this case included a standardized A-scan echography and UBM, which confirmed the suspicion of a tumor lesion, followed by cooperation with other medical professionals in order to discover a primary diagnosis. |
