RESUMO
The first two Swedish cases of primary bilateral malignant melanoma of the choroid are presented. In one case bilateral histological confirmation was obtained as both eyes were enucleated. In the other case one eye was enucleated and the other irradiated with an episcleral ruthenium plaque. Sweden has a population of 8.38 millions, so that bilateral choroidal melanomas may be less rare than previously thought.
