Retinal vascular abnormalities in Sturge-Weber syndrome
Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) includes facial, leptomeningeal and choroidal hemangioma. The retinal vasculature is essentially normal. Rare cases of retinal vascular tortuosity and arterio-venous malformations have been reported.

Long‐Term Local Control and Mortality After Transpupillary Thermotherapy of Small Uveal Melanomas
ABSTRACT Background Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) is used for selected small choroidal melanocytic tumours, either as primary treatment or as an adjunct to plaque brachytherapy. We compared long‐term local recurrence and mortality outcomes after primary TTT alone, plaque brachytherapy combined with TTT (brachy+TTT), and plaque brachytherapy alone (

Evolutionary Origin of Ocular Melanoma: Associations With rs12913832 G Allele Frequency and Latitude
The rs12913832 derived (G) allele frequency (blue‐eye allele) was a markedly stronger predictor of ocular melanoma incidence than geographic latitude, with approximately 92% of the latitude effect mediated through allele frequency. These findings indicate that pigmentation‐related genetic variation contributes substantially to global differences in ...

ABSTRACT Objective Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) symptoms frequently overlap in neurological acute crises (ACs) presenting with seizures, stroke‐like episodes (SLE), and headaches. Recent efforts to develop a prospective drug trial highlighted the need for a new outcome measure capable of quantifying these symptoms during an SWS AC.

Foundation Models in Diagnosis of Ophthalmic Diseases: Construction and Application
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence holds promise for addressing the uneven distribution of medical resources across different regions. Compared with convolutional neural network models, foundation models offer significant advantages: on one hand, their pre‐training does not rely on massive labeled data; on the other hand, they possess the capability to ...

Survival impact of second primary cutaneous and non‐cutaneous melanoma in melanoma survivors
In this US population‐based cohort study, melanoma survivors diagnosed with regional/distant‐stage SPCM or SPNCM had worse survival compared to those with a single melanoma. Abstract Background Melanoma survivors have a high risk of developing second primary neoplasms, both cutaneous melanoma (SPCM) and non‐cutaneous melanoma (SPNCM), but little is ...

Ten metastatic melanoma patients were treated with cancer immunotherapies which led to poliosis during the course of treatment; of note all 10 patients experienced a response to therapy, regardless of the class of immunotherapy, including immune checkpoints, tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, or bispecific T‐cell engagers.

Orbital melanocytoma: When a tumor becomes a relieving surprise
Purpose: Melanocytomas are rare pigmented tumors that arise form melanocytes and have been reported in the central nervous system. Orbital melanocytomas “also known as blue nevus” are rarely reported.
