Abstract:
A 35-year-old woman had a circumscribed pigmented scleral lesion overlying a pigmented mass in the ciliary body and trabecular meshwork. Sclerectomy and iridocyclectomy were performed. Histologically, the lesion proved to be a melanocytoma. This represents to our knowledge the fourth reported case of scleral extension of a ciliary body melanocytoma.
