''Once you tell people there's a cure for something, the more likely they are to pressure doctors to prescribe it.'' -Robert Ehrlich, drug advertising executive.

This finding is compatible with left Horner's syndrome, a regional disturbance of the sympathetic nervous system caused by the paravertebral tumor [in this case - ed.]. A unilateral lack of sympathetic stimulation in childhood interferes with melanin pigmentation of the melanocytes in the superficial stroma of the iris, resulting in heterochromia. This clinical finding might be useful in the early diagnosis of lesions affecting the sympathetic nerves. posted by Sydney on
