Abstract:
We report the case of a patient with a unilateral chorioretinal lesion that evolved over 35 years before enucleation provided the diagnosis of amelanotic choroidal melanoma. This case is quite unusual in regards the long-term follow-up of this tumor before treatments were initiated. The patient showed no evidence of locoregional failure or distant metastasis at 30 months of follow-up.
