RESUMEN
CASO CLÍNICO: Se describen los hallazgos clínicos y la cirugía conservadora de un paciente con un adenoma no pigmentado del cuerpo ciliar. El adenoma presentaba un tamaño de 5 × 7 mm. El paciente fue intervenido con una cirugía conservadora mediante iridociclectomía parcial asociada a esclerouvectomía lamelar. DISCUSIÓN: Los adenomas del cuerpo ciliar clínicamente pueden imitar a los melanomas amelanóticos. La cirugía conservadora del globo ocular permite realizar un diagnóstico y un tratamiento del paciente manteniendo la función visual
CASE REPORT: We report the clinical features and surgery of a patient with an adenoma of the non-pigmented ciliary epithelium. The adenoma measured 5 × 7 mm. The patient underwent radical ocular surgery consisting of partial iridocyclectomy associated to lamellar sclerouvectomy. DISCUSSION: Adenomas of ciliary body can mimic clinically amelanotic melanomas. We present details of the patient's medical records and review the literature. Clinically, adenoma in ciliary body can mimic amelanotic melanomas. Conservative surgery of the eye allows diagnosis and treatment, maintaining visual function
