Abstract
A 57-year-old white female presented with a recurring neurilemoma (benign solitary schwannoma) of the ciliary body 15 years after the primary modified iridocyclectomy. As neurilemoma are encapsulated, successful "tumorectomy" was twice accomplished with total anatomical and functional preservation of the globe. The pathological diagnosis of spindle cell tumors of the uvea is discussed.Entities:
