    Journal: Am J Ophthalmol; 1980 Mar; 89(3):323-37. PubMed ID: 7369294.
    Abstract:
    In five patients with choroidal melanoma occurring among present or former workers of the duPont Belle, West Virginia, plant the involved eye was enucleated and histopathologic confirmation of the diagnosis was made. This represents a statistically significantly greater than expected occurrence of choroidal melanomas in the white male study population.
