We treated a bilateral, well-differentiated neuroblastoma of the choroid in a patient who had congenital abdominal neuroblastoma. Although orbital metastasis of neuroblastoma is common, intraocular metastasis is not. In our patient, there was no amplification of the N-myc oncogene in the tumor of either eye. This is consistent with early-stage primary neuroblastoma. Histologically, the tumors were identical in each eye and well differentiated with Homer Wright rosettes; most neuroblastoma metastases have few rosettes and are composed of more undifferentiated, anaplastic cells. We believe that our patient had bilateral primary tumors and not metastatic tumors.
