Abstract: | The number of reports of malignant complications of human immunodeficiency virus infections is increasing. Cutaneous melanoma has been previously reported in five patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection, but no cases of ocular melanoma have been documented. We describe the first case of ocular melanoma reported in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus infection. |
