[Intraocular ossification in clinically unsuspected malignant melanoma of the uvea and in phthisis bulbi].
Phthisical eyes of 2 patients revealed clinically unsuspected, partially necrotic and partially vital malignant melanomas of the uvea and extensive intraocular ossification. Both eyes had had recurrent intraocular inflammatory episodes for years before they were enucleated because of pain. Intraocular ossification does not rule out the presence of clinically unsuspected malignant melanoma of the uvea.
