Abstract

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death in the United States. Although it frequently metastasizes to adjacent structures such as the liver, orbital metastases are exceedingly uncommon. Additionally, the morbidity and mortality associated with colorectal cancer appear to be shifting to a younger population, a phenomenon that is exacerbated in minority populations. We present a case of orbital metastasis from colorectal carcinoma in a young Hispanic male. This uncommon presentation of disease emphasizes the link between healthcare disparity and differential outcomes of colorectal cancer.
