Background: To reveal clinical findings related to metastatic conjunctival melanoma.
Methods: 10 ophthalmic oncology centres (9 countries and 4 continents) shared data to create a large clinical case series. The main outcome measures were the incidence and cumulative risk of systemic metastasis, study mortality rates and Kaplan-Meier patient mortality after developing conjunctival melanoma metastasis.
Purpose: To develop a prognostic test based on a single blood sample obtained at the time of uveal melanoma diagnosis.
Methods: 83 patients diagnosed with posterior uveal melanoma between 1996 and 2000 were included. Peripheral serum samples were obtained at diagnosis and kept at -80 °C until this analysis.
Purpose: To report the time trends in basic patient characteristics and the number of specimens received at a national referral center for ophthalmic pathology.
Methods: Data on patient sex, age at surgical resection and geographical location of the referring unit were obtained for all specimens received at the St. Erik Ophthalmic Pathology laboratory, Stockholm, Sweden, between January 1, 1959, and December 31, 2021.
Purpose: To revisit the independent importance of ciliary body involvement (CBI), monosomy 3 (M3), tumour size, histological and clinical factors in uveal melanoma (UM) and to devise a new prognostic classification based on a combination of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) models.
Methods: Two cohorts with a total of 1796 patients were included. Clinicopathological factors were compared between patients with and without CBI and M3.
