Block excision of mixed structure iridociliary melanoma. A clinical case

Abstract

The paper describes the details of observation and surgical treatment of a patient with an established diagnosis of melanoma of the iris and ciliary body. The presence of neoplasm growth signs required a surgical treatment, which helped preserve the eye and its visual functions. Ultrasound biomicroscopy is a modern informative method for observing neoplasms of the iridociliary zone. A timely performed block excision provides a good anatomical and functional result.
