  • Title: Metastatic tumor of the iris: case report.
    Author: Barishak YR, Baruh E, Lazar M.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1978 Sep; 10(9):1191-3. PubMed ID: 736406.
    Abstract:
    The iris involvement in generalized carcinomatosis is less frequent than that of the ciliary body and choroid; its point of interest is that it might constitute the presenting sign of the general disease. The case of a 43-year-old man who had a metastasis of an anaplastic bronchus carcinoma in the iris and died of metastases 3 months after the appearance of the iris tumor, despite adequate chemotherapy, is reported.
