title: [Displacement of the iris root: a frequent sign of the anterior spread of a tumor of the ciliary body].
abstract: The authors emphasize a special feature of the malignant melanoma of the ciliary body when invading the anterior chamber angle: the displacement of the iris root towards the back, with localized deepening of the anterior chamber. The clinico-pathologic correlation is shown by slit lamp and light microscopy pictures.
