Spontaneous globe rupture from an intraocular melanotic schwannoma
With reports of MS with high recurrence and metastatic spread rates, there have been some suggestions that MS should be considered an aggressive malignancy. This case highlights a dramatic presentation of a rare ocular malignancy with some features of aggressiveness. Our case report endorses the importance of close monitoring for local recurrence or metastasis to prevent a poor outcome.
