Abstract. Purpose:To report a case of iridociliary tumor metastatic from carcinoma of transverse colon. Case:A 54-year-old woman presented with blurring and hyperemia in the right eye since 6 weeks before. She had received resection of transverse colon carcinoma 5 years before. Metastasis to the peritoneum was already present. She had been treated with multiple antineoplastic medications. Systemic metastases were present including the lung, peritoneum, and Douglas cavity. Findings:Corrected visual acuity was 0.2 right and 1.2 left. Intraocular pressure(IOP)was 12 mmHg right and 16 mmHg left. The right eye showed signs of anterior uveitis and an iris tumor. It was located in the inferior sector of the iris and was 3 mm in size. A similar tumor was present in the corresponding site of ciliary body. The tumor increased in size at the rate of 1mm per month. IOP stayed within normal range throughout. Death ensued 50 days after her initial visit. Conclusion:This case suggests that incidence of intraocular metastasis of malignant tumor may increase in time to come. Malignant tumor metastatic to the iris and ciliary body needs due attention in differentiating from uveitis.
