Pathogenesis of ciliary-body cysts associated with multiple myeloma.
A case history is presented which illustrates the occurrence of ciliary-body cysts in association with multiple myeloma. Gross pathologic, light-microscopic, ultrastructural, and immunofluorescent characteristics of the cysts are presented, and the observed morphology used to postulate their pathogenesis.
