Multiple bilateral ocular metastases from malignant melanoma associated with blue nevi.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:Malignant melanoma associated with a blue nevus is a rare diagnosis. Additionally, only a handful of cases of malignant melanoma associated with blue nevi involving the ocular structures have been reported. We report a probable case of malignant melanoma associated with a blue nevus with metastasis to multiple bilateral ocular structures. METHODS:Observational case report. RESULTS:We report a case of a 27-year-old man with lymph node biopsy-proven malignant melanoma as well as a separate skin biopsy of a blue nevus, who developed multiple bilateral pigmented ocular lesions on the sclera, iris, trabecular meshwork, and choroid. CONCLUSIONS:Although ocular histopathologic evidence could not be obtained, our case likely represents a case of explosive widespread metastasis probably originating from a blue nevus of unknown location, which involved both eyes and adnexae.

  • Novel ABCA4 mutation leads to loss of a conserved C-terminal motif: implications for predicting pathogenicity based on genetic testing.

    abstract:PURPOSE:Mutations in the ABCA4 gene result in a broad spectrum of severe retinal degeneration, including Stargardt macular dystrophy, fundus flavimaculatus, autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa, and cone-rod dystrophy. In addition to the detection of well-characterized mutations, genetic testing frequently yields n...
