Dramatic response of choroidal metastases from breast cancer to a combination of trastuzumab and vinorelbine.

Zee-Wan Wong1, Steven J Phillips, Matthew J Ellis.   

Abstract

We report the case of a 57-year-old woman with unilateral choroidal metastases from HER-2-positive breast cancer. She was given trastuzumab and vinorelbine with complete resolution of her visual defect after one cycle of treatment. This article illustrates that treatment using trastuzumab-containing chemotherapy regimens in HER-2-overexpressing breast cancer patients with choroidal metastases may be an alternative therapeutic strategy to initial orbital irradiation.
