Plasmacytoma of the uvea in a case of multiple myeloma.
A case of plasmacytoma in the uvea, both clinically and grossly anatomically mimicking a malignant melanoma, is described in a 63-year-old man who died from multiple myeloma. This is an extremely rare condition in the eye. Only one report of a similar tumour has been found in the literature.
