title: [Iris metastases. Apropos of 4 cases].
abstract: Metastatic tumors of the iris are rare. They most commonly arise from a primary breast or lung neoplasm and are associated with widespread carcinomatosis. They appear as white pink masses; anterior uveitis and hypertony can be seen. They are most often associated with short life expectancy. We report four cases and we show the interest of radiotherapy.
