Uveal metastasis arising from thyroid neoplasms: a systemic review of case reports [PDF]

, 2023
Abstract Purpose: We systematically reviewed the case report literature to identify cases of uveal metastases (UM) originating from Thyroid Cancers (TCs) and evaluate this condition's demographic, ophthalmologic, and oncologic characteristics.

Anterior uveal neurilemmoma--a rare neoplasm simulating malignant melanoma. [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1987
A 30-year-old woman presented with dilated episcleral vessels in the right eye which were found to be associated with an underlying ciliary body tumour. Contact lens examination, transpupillary transillumination, ultrasonography, computerised tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and fine needle aspiration biopsy produced apparently conflicting and ...

BILATERAL DIFFUSE MELANOCYTIC UVEAL TUMOURS ASSOCIATED WITH SYSTEMIC MALIGNANT NEOPLASM [PDF]

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Ophthalmology, 1986
AbstractA case of bilateral diffuse melanocytic uveal tumours /n a 34‐year‐old male in association with a systemic carcinoma is described clinically, by light microscopy and by transmission electron microscopy Although the reports of such cases are extremely rare, they do not necessarily represent a new syndrome.

SF3B1 and EIF1AX mutations occur in primary leptomeningeal melanocytic neoplasms; yet another similarity to uveal melanomas [PDF]

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2016
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)

SOX10 Expression as Well as BRAF and GNAQ/11 Mutations Distinguish Pigmented Ciliary Epithelium Neoplasms From Uveal Melanomas [PDF]

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2017
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 [PDF]

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2009
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

Second Primary Neoplasms in Patients With Uveal Melanoma: A SEER Database Analysis [PDF]

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
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 ...

Incidence and survival of uveal melanoma occurring as single cancer versus its occurrence as a first or second primary neoplasm

Annals of Oncology, 2019
Abstract Background Uveal Melanoma (UVM) is the most common ocular malignancy. Many mutations were identified in affected patients defining genetic predisposition syndromes. Previous studies discussed separately the incidence of single or second primary ocular melanomas.
