Metastatic tumor to the extraocular muscles: report of 5 cases.

Robert E Wiggins1, Sandra Frazier Byrne.   

Abstract

We report the findings in 5 patients with metastases to the extraocular muscles. Familiarity with this condition will aid ophthalmologists in differentiating it from thyroid ophthalmopathy, the most common form of muscle enlargement. Palliative treatment is effective in ameliorating visual symptoms.
