Abstract
Two unusual uveal tumors occurring in eyes enucleated for presumed malignant melanoma are discussed. One was a leiomyoma of the ciliary body, affecting a 22-year-old female, the other a hemangiopericytoma of the choroid in an 84-year-old male patient. The latter case is the fourth intraocular hemangiopericytoma reported in the literature to date. The histopathologic diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy.Entities:
