Multifocal choroidal melanoma in ocular melanocytosis
G. A. Pomeranz, A. H. Bunt and R. E. Kalina
A 29-year-old white women had ocular melanocytosis with scleral
pigmentation and a diffuse choroidal nevus. The eye was enucleated because
of two choroidal tumors. Light and electron microscopy showed two separate
choroidal melanomas with differential cytologic characteristics. The
extreme rarity of multicentric choroidal melanomas support the belief that
ocular melanocytosis predisposes to malignancy.
