This article describes a rare unilateral association between an iris stromal tumor and a macular focal choroidal excavation. A 40-year-old patient was found to have a small iris tumor and a macular lesion in one eye during a routine eye examination. The patient was asymptomatic and had normal visual function. After evaluation, the diagnosis of a nonmelanocytic undefined stromal tumor of the iris associated with macular focal choroidal excavation was made. The size and shape of the lesions remained stable during a 7-year follow-up, and no other symptoms developed. Further reports are necessary to understand the exact pathogenesis of this association.
Purpose: To describe a unique unilateral association between an iris stromal tumor and a macular focal choroidal excavation. Case Description: A 40-year old patient presented with a small iris tumor associated with a unilateral macular lesion disclosed during a routine ophthalmologic examination. The patient was asymptomatic and visual function was not affected. After clinical and instrumental evaluation, a diagnosis of nonmelanocytic undefined stromal tumor of the iris associated with macular focal choroidal excavation was made. The size and shape of the two lesions remained stable during a 7-year follow-up and the patient did not develop other signs. Conclusion: The concurrent presence of a stromal iris tumor associated with focal choroidal excavation has never been reported. Further reports of this association are required in order to understand its exact pathogenesis.
