Abstract
A case of bilateral uveal melanoma in a 60 yr old woman in association with primary bilateral ovarian carcinoma is described. This is the 1st case in which ultrastructural studies were performed on the ocular tumors. Seven previously described cases are summarized and the extreme rarity of such reports would suggest that this may indeed be a new syndrome.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
