title: Papillary adenocarcinoma of the ciliary body simulating retinoblastoma.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To report a 2 1/2-year-old boy who had papillary adenocarcinoma of the ciliary body that simulated retinoblastoma.
  
  
  METHODS
  Initially treated for congenital glaucoma, the patient was referred with a white mass involving the iris, chamber angle, and ciliary body.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Enucleation of the right eye, which was initially diagnosed as retinoblastoma, showed a papillary adenocarcinoma of the ciliary body epithelium involving the posterior chamber, iris, anterior chamber, and trabeculum.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Adenocarcinoma of the ciliary body must be included in the differential diagnosis of tumors originating from the ciliary body in young children.
