title: [Pseudoneuritis pigmentosa in malignant melanoma of the choroid].
abstract: In a 65-year-old woman with a choroidal melanoma of the choroid a unilateral pseudoretinitis pigmentosa was detected by ophthalmoscopy. Histological examination revealed a mixed-cell type of malignant melanoma with melanophages and proliferation of pigment epithelium spreading over the inner surface of the retina, with seedings into the vitreous.
