    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • A 37-year-old man presented with a left eye lesion suspicious for malignant melanoma based on clinical and fluorescein angiographic findings.
    • Enucleation was performed due to the suspected diagnosis of ocular melanoma.

    Observation:

    • Histologic examination revealed a chorioretinal inflammatory mass.
    • The mass was characterized by the presence of refractile crystalline material.

    Findings:

    • The lesion, initially suspected to be malignant melanoma, was histologically identified as a chorioretinal inflammatory mass.
    • Refractile crystalline material was the causative agent of the inflammation.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering inflammatory conditions that can mimic malignant melanoma clinically and angiographically.
