Clinical and pathological status of mesectodermal leiomyoma of the ciliary body. A case report and review of the literature.
Ishigooka H, Yamabe H, Kobashi Y, Nagata M. Ishigooka H, et al. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol. 1989;227(2):101-5. doi: 10.1007/BF02169778. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol. 1989. PMID: 2656414 Review.
The tumor and the adjacent portion of the iris, angle structures, ciliary body, cornea, and sclera were removed en bloc under the half-thickness corneoscleral flap. On the basis of light-microscopic studies, the tumor was suspected to be a neurogenic or glial tumor …
