Mesectodermal leiomyoma of the ciliary body extending into the anterior chamber

J G Orsoni et al. Ophthalmologica. 1985.

Abstract

A neoplasm of the ciliary body extending from the equator to the iris and the anterior chamber was observed in an 18-year old girl. Because the visual acuity was lost and the clinical diagnosis was uncertain the eye was enucleated. Both optic and electron microscopic investigations allowed the diagnosis of the mesectodermal type of leiomyoma of the ciliary body.
