title: Unilateral benign medulloepithelioma associated with bilateral retinal detachment.
abstract: A two-month-old girl presented with a unilateral benign cystic medulloepithelioma from the ciliary body associated with bilateral retinal non-attachment. The authors discuss the histopathologic findings and the pathogenesis of the congenital retinal non-attachment: are these incidental occurrences or do they arise from a common pathogenetic mechanism?
