Second Primary Neoplasms in Patients With Uveal Melanoma: A SEER Database Analysis [PDF]
To determine the risk of second primary neoplasms (SPNs) in subjects previously diagnosed with uveal melanoma (UM), including an analysis on whether radiotherapy is a risk factor to develop these SPNs.Retrospective cohort study.Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) 9 database, we identified patients diagnosed with UM as their ...

SF3B1 and EIF1AX mutations occur in primary leptomeningeal melanocytic neoplasms; yet another similarity to uveal melanomas [PDF]
Like uveal melanomas, primary leptomeningeal melanocytic neoplasms (LMNs) frequently carry GNAQ and GNA11 mutations. However, it is currently unknown whether these LMNs harbor mutations in BAP1, SF3B1 and/or EIF1AX like uveal melanomas as well. In this study, we used Sanger sequencing for the detection of mutations in SF3B1 (hotspots in exon 14 and 15)

Adenocarcinomas or adenomas derived from pigmented ciliary epithelium (APCE) are exceptionally rare ocular tumors. These tumors have pigmented and epithelioid features, and some APCEs are negative for keratin markers and positive for melanocytic markers. It is especially difficult to distinguish APCEs from uveal melanoma (UM).

Expression of cyclooxygenase-2 in canine uveal melanocytic neoplasms
Abstract Objective—To determine whether cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is expressed in benign or malignant canine uveal melanocytic neoplasms and whether expression correlates with malignancy. Sample Population—Tissue sections from 71 globes; 57 with benign (n = 15), malignant (34), or mixed (8) uveal melanocytic neoplasms; 10 with nonneoplastic disease; and

Systemic anti-CD20 (rituximab) as primary treatment for symptomatic primary uveal lymphoma
Purpose: Uveal lymphomas are indolent, frequently choroid-involving neoplasms that are mainly CD20-positive B-cell extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. Irreversible visual loss may occur from retinal detachment and/or glaucoma among untreated symptomatic ...

Immunoexpression of Macroh2a in Uveal Melanoma
MacroH2A is a histone variant whose expression has been studied in several neoplasms, including cutaneous melanomas (CMs). In the literature, it has been demonstrated that macroH2A.1 levels gradually decrease during CM progression, and a high expression ...
