  • Disseminated Chorioretinitis With Unknown Etiology

    Apr 5 2018 by Kim Barrett

    Ultra-wide field fluorescein angiogram of a 31-year-old female with intermittent pain in her left eye. Her condition has been managed in Liberia until recently when she moved to the United States. She suffers from multiple modalities including central retinal artery occlusion, posterior synechiae of the iris, interstitial keratitis, disseminated chorioretinitis, as well as HIV. An infectious cause is high on the differential in light of her HIV status. DDx: hypertensive crisis, an embolism (? IV drug use), coagulopathy, trauma, infectious. Blood work was normal. Her current vision is 20/30 right eye and 20/400 left eye.

  • Large, Dome-Shaped Peripheral Choroidal Melanoma - Widefield Color

    Feb 13 2020 by Michael Seider, MD

    Large, dome-shaped peripheral choroidal melanoma of the left eye with inferior exudative retinal detachment. Note the lack of obvious orange pigment over the tumor and apparent drusen anteriorly. A lack of ophthalmoscopically obvious lipofuscin is not uncommon among larger choroidal melanomas. B-Scan ultrasonography (transverse, 10 o’clock) confirms a low-moderate internally reflective dome-shaped choroidal lesion with a small adjacent retinal detachment. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (radial, 10 o’clock) confirms no ciliary body involvement of the tumor.

  • Multiple Ciliary Body Cysts

    Aug 7 2020 by Rinal Pandit

    Ultrasound biomicroscopy image (Transverse scan) of a 30-year-old female with occludable angle. For all young patients presenting with angle closure ,UBM should preferably be performed. It helps establish the cause of narrowing , such as a pseudoplateau configuration in this case produced by multiple CB cysts.

  • Ciliary Body Melanoma

    May 18 2020 by McGill University Health Centre

    Uveal melanoma is the most common primary eye malignancy in adulthood, occurring mainly after age 60. The uveal tract — composed of the iris, ciliary body, and choroid — can be affected by uveal melanoma. Despite advances in treatment of the primary tumor, metastatic disease occurs in almost half of patients, generally affecting the liver and lungs via hematogenous dissemination of the primary tumor. Tumors have different levels of pigmentation, and some are amelanocytic (nonpigmented). The differential diagnosis for amelanotic choroidal melanoma is metastatic disease. Large tumors displace the lens. Of the 3 locations in the uveal tract, tumors of the ciliary body have the worst prognosis. The enucleation specimen in (A) shows a firm, dome-shaped, deeply pigmented tumor arising from the ciliary body (arrow). The lens has been removed, and a diffuse retinal detachment artifact is present.

  • Amelanotic Choroidal Tumor

    May 18 2020 by McGill University Health Centre

    Choroidal melanoma is often asymptomatic and diagnosis is incidental. The tumors may grow beneath the retina, or may break through the Bruch membrane and disrupt the retina. Tumors breaking through the Bruch membrane and disrupting the retina have a characteristic “mushroom” shape. This enucleation specimen shows an amelanotic, dome-shaped choroidal tumor with several dilated blood vessels. The tumor has not infiltrated the sclera, ciliary body, or optic nerve. Note the retinal detachment next to the tumor (arrow).

    Condition/keywords: amelanotic, choroidal tumor
