Abstract
A benign epithelioma of the ciliary body which caused cataract and dislocation of the lens in a 44 yr old woman is reported. Tumor seeding was a remarkable finding, and is a result of disruption of the epithelial lining due to active production of mucopolysaccharides by tumor cells.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
