Recognizing the signs of this syndrome, their levels of injury and causes are of paramount importance to the clinician. Case: A 38-year-old female patient presented with ptosis of the upper eyelid, right eye, 2 months of evolution, growth of axillary ganglion 4 years ago, also cough of 6-month duration, and 6 kg weight loss in 3 months. Exploration: mild ptosis, greater anisocoria in the dark, and right miosis. Systemic exploration: right breast tumor of 6 cm, adhered to deep planes. The patient was referred to an oncological center. This case is important because there is a widespread of prevention programs; however, there are still people who continue to hide their diseases, and we must not forget that the eyeball is a key point to detect systemic diseases.","PeriodicalId":348732,"journal":{"name":"Revista Mexicana de Oftalmología (English Edition)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131600350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
