ABSTRACT

Sixty eight patients with pearl tumor like lesion were examined in the Outpatient Clinic of Assiut University Hospital through a period of five years. The lesion appeared as a white nodule [mass] varying in size, shape and site. Past history of trauma was positive in small number of cases. The clinical picture was similar to iridocyclitis. In spite of doing all the available investigations the principle cause of the lesion is still unknown
