[Malignant melanoma on primary acquired conjunctival melanosis].
A primary acquired melanosis occurred in the right bulbar conjunctiva of a 65 year-old caucasian woman. After four years of steadiness, this lesion gave raise to a malignant conjunctival melanoma. The evolution remained under control three years after the end of the therapeutic procedures. Clinical and histopathological data are presented.
