Abstract:
A large, inferior-sector melanoma occupying about one-fifth of the iris area in a 65-year-old white man is described. Pigmented lesions of the iris (freckles, nevi, and benign and malignant melanomas) and their signs are reviewed. The iris lesion shows signs of being both malignant and benign. Periodic monitoring of the defect is being continued.
