Secondary Eye Metastases

Secondary eye metastases are cancers that spread to the eye from other primary sites, most commonly the breast, lung, prostate, kidney, and gastrointestinal tract. These are the most frequent intraocular malignancies in adults, typically affecting the choroid.

Stomach (Gastric) Cancer

Stomach cancer, also called gastric cancer, begins in the lining of the stomach. It is more common in East Asia, Eastern Europe, and parts of South America. Most are adenocarcinomas, and it is often diagnosed at an advanced stage.
Subtypes include:
• Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (more common, slower growing)
• Diffuse-type adenocarcinoma (more aggressive)

Lymphoma (Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin)

Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, part of the immune system. It begins in lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. There are two main types:

Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL): Characterized by Reed-Sternberg cells
Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL): A diverse group that includes B-cell and T-cell lymphomas
HL tends to be more predictable and curable, while NHL varies widely in behavior.

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs)

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of chronic blood cancers where the bone marrow makes too many red cells, white cells, or platelets. They are linked to mutations in genes such as JAK2, CALR, and MPL, and may remain stable for years or progress to myelofibrosis or acute leukemia.

The three main types of classic MPNs are:
• Polycythemia vera (PV) – too many red blood cells
• Essential thrombocythemia (ET) – too many platelets
• Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) – scarring of the bone marrow

Sebaceous Carcinoma of the Eyelid

Sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid is a rare and aggressive skin cancer that originates in the sebaceous glands of the eyelid, most commonly in the meibomian glands. It often mimics benign conditions like chalazion or blepharitis, making early diagnosis challenging.

Retinoblastoma

Retinoblastoma is a rare eye cancer that develops from the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. It primarily affects young children, typically under the age of five, and can occur in one or both eyes.
It is often caused by a mutation in the RB1 gene, which may be inherited (hereditary) or occur spontaneously (non-hereditary). Early detection is crucial for preserving vision and life.

Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer begins in the ovaries, which produce eggs and hormones. It is the deadliest gynecologic cancer, often diagnosed at a late stage. Ovarian cancers are classified into:
• Epithelial tumors (most common)
• Germ cell tumors (develop from egg-producing cells)
• Stromal tumors (develop from hormone-producing tissue)

Thyroid Cancer (Papillary, Follicular, Medullary, Anaplastic)

Thyroid cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the thyroid gland, located at the base of the neck. It is often diagnosed early and is highly treatable in most forms. There are four main types:
• Papillary thyroid carcinoma: most common and least aggressive
• Follicular thyroid carcinoma: similar prognosis to papillary
• Medullary thyroid carcinoma: originates in C cells, can be hereditary
• Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: rare and highly aggressive
