  • Title: Epithelioid cell nevus of the iris.
    Author: Shields JA, Karan DS, Perry HD, Donoso LA.
    Journal: Arch Ophthalmol; 1985 Feb; 103(2):235-7. PubMed ID: 3977695.
    Abstract:
    A 21-year-old woman had a progressively enlarging pigmented tumor of the iris and anterior chamber angle in the right eye. Because the lesion was suspected to be a malignant melanoma, it was removed by an iridocyclectomy. Histopathologic examination disclosed the tumor to be a benign epithelioid cell nevus. This article describes the clinical and pathologic features of this rare iris tumor.
