Abstract
- We experienced a case of the ciliary body neurilemorna in a 26 year old m.an who had progressive visual loss and ocular pain for two years. Neurilemomas are benign tumors and rarely occur within the eyeball. The clinical apearance of the lesion was similar to that presened by choroidal melanoma, therefore they are misdiagnosed as malignant melanoinas, resulting in enucleation. We reviewed the literature on solitary neurilemoma of the uveal tract and analyzed the main clinical and pathological features of the uveal neurilem.oma with this case which successfully treated by iridocyclectomy.
