A 47-year old man developed chronic unilateral iridocyclitis with secondary glaucoma, and increased plasma carcinoembryonic antigen levels. The eye was enucleated seven months later, and histopathologic examination revealed a metastatic mucin-producing carcinoembryonic antigen-positive adenocarcinoma. The patient died one year after the initial onset of symptoms. The primary site of the tumor was not proven, but most likely was the gastrointestinal tract.
