description Yanin Suwan,1 Duangnate Rojanaporn,1 Chaiwat Teekhasaenee,1 Somboon Keelawat2 1Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, 2Department of Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand Importance: Report of an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patient with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)-associated iris smooth muscle tumor. Observations: A 14-year-old African American female diagnosed with AIDS developed a painless iris mass in the right eye for 10 months. Iridocyclectomy was performed, and the pathology indicated EBV-associated iris smooth muscle tumor with epithelioid morphology. Immunohistochemical stains and in situ hybridization for EBV-encoded ribonucleic acid are very useful diagnostic tools for definite diagnosis. At 14-month follow-up, the patient did not have any tumor recurrence. Conclusion: This is the case report of EBV-associated iris smooth muscle tumor in a person diagnosed with AIDS with a unique epithelioid morphologic feature. Keywords: human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), iris tumor, Epstein–Barr virus, smooth muscle tumor, leiomyosarcoma
