[Ocular melanoma associated with lymphocytic leukemia]

A rare combination of ocular melanoma with chronic myeloid leukemia was registered in a 61-year-old woman. The case history was not properly assessed in due time, therefore, the reason of ophthalmectomy was not identified leading to misdiagnosis. Neither chemotherapy nor radiation treatment was administered that permitted the author to establish a metachronous character of the primary malignancies. Melanoma was also uncommon for spindle cell components prone to late dissemination, specific alveoli resembling nevoid structures. There were metastases to the spleen.
