ABSTRACT
A solitary anterior uveal tumor was identified as a extramedullary plasmacytoma. A 72 year old woman presented incidentally with a solitary iris tumor. The mass was round to invade into the ciliary body. Total excision was successfully done by an en bloc resection with a good visual result. There were no positive findings in the systemic work-up for multiple myeloma. The light microscopic and imrnunoperoxidase staining findings suggest that the mass was of anterior uveal tract origin and showed an monoc1onality of IgG and lambda. It is the first case of extramedullary Plasmacytoma of iris-ciliary body origin presented as an iris mass.
