- Description
- Among the objective manifestations of a choroidal melanoma, the most important is the presence of a solid mass seen on ophthaloscopic presentation. (seen in Slides 14-1 to 14-13). The shape and projection of the tumor can be best appreciated by observation with the indirect ophthalmoscope. The appearance of these tumors is typically that of a mushroom-shaped, collar button-shaped mass.
