چکیده

CLINICAL CASES We report the cases of 3 young patients who were seen in our hospital with the diagnosis of iris mammillations. Two of them were bilateral without familial association. The third child had iris mammillations as part of an ocular melanocytosis. None of them had abnormalities in the posterior segment or the pachymetry. DISCUSSION The discovery of iris mammillations during an examination requires a long term follow up of these patients due to its association with uveal melanoma. This is required whether it is a casual discovery or in the presence of ocular melanocytosis.
