  • Title: Sarcoid granuloma simulating amelanotic melanoma of the iris.
    Author: Cohen SB, Peyman GA.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1986 Dec; 18(12):343-5. PubMed ID: 3813356.
    Abstract:
    A 24-year-old black man had a unilateral vascular iris tumor associated with iridocyclitis. Clinically, the iris lesion appeared similar to an amelanotic melanoma. A systemic workup, including an angiotensin-converting enzyme determination, suggested a diagnosis of sarcoidosis. A conjunctival biopsy confirmed that diagnosis.
