  • Title: Leiomyoma of the ciliary body extending to the anterior chamber: clinicopathologic and ultrasound biomicroscopic correlation.
    Author: Biswas J, Kumar SK, Gopal L, Bhende MP.
    Journal: Surv Ophthalmol; 2000; 44(4):336-42. PubMed ID: 10667440.
    Abstract:
    Leiomyoma of the ciliary body is a rare tumor that often causes a diagnostic dilemma. Sclerouvectomy has been found to be beneficial in the management of iris and ciliary body leiomyoma. We treated a case of leiomyoma of the ciliary body presenting as a fleshy mass in the anterior chamber, removed by partial lamellar sclerouvectomy. Ultrasound biomicroscopic and histopathologic features, including light microscopic, immunohistochemistry, and transmission electron microscopic features, were studied and the literature was reviewed.
