Primary iris tumors are relatively uncommon and are, readily discernible through multimodality examination, (see Chapter 4). Of these, most are benign, occult, iridociliary, cysts.1,2 Anterior segment malignancies are most, commonly iris melanomas, followed by ciliary body, neoplasia that invade the iris and/or anterior segment.3,4, Most commonly occurring in Caucasian patients, these, brown or tapioca-colored malignancies commonly contrast, with their underlying lightly pigmented iris stoma.5,6, However, when pigmented iris melanomas arise within, dark irides, additional findings may be needed to establish, a clinical diagnosis., Iris tumors can be broadly classified as cystic or solid,, discernible through slit-lamp examination, transillumination,, and gonioscopy (Mind map 23-1). However,, advanced imaging techniques such as high-frequency, UBM and/or anterior segment optical coherence, tomography (AS-OCT) are the most valuable tools in, confirming and differentiating these characteristics (see, Chapter 3). Herein, we offer our clinical approach, delve, into their classification, and highlight the specialized, imaging techniques utilized for their differentiation.
