Abstract
On the occasion of the observation of 4 cases of melanocytoma of the optic disc, the authors stress the relative rarity of this pigmented tumor, its benignity and its frequent association with a choroidal nevus. The melanocytoma is mostly stationary and produces no functional symptoms. It is generally diagnosed after the age of 30, and its pathogenesis is unknown.Keywords
