Iris Melanoma: a Case Report
Although its location makes the iris easily accessible for examination, differentiation of melanocytic malformations such as nevi or melanomas is difficult. Inaccurate judgment may lead to morbid ocular and systemic complications. If tumor is detected in early phase, prognosis is good. Management decisions for iris melanoma depend on clinical features. In most cases, local resection with careful assessment for iridocorneal angle involvement achieves long term tumor clearance with an acceptable morbidity. We report on a 52-year-old man who presented to an eye clinic with a pigmented lesion on his right eye iris. After thorough local and systemic examination and three-year follow up, we performed iridectomy with sclerotomy and iris reconstruction to reduce postoperative photophobia. The patient was satisfied with functional and cosmetic result. No further treatment was indicated.
