This report demonstrates a unique case of conjunctival melanoma harboring a BRAF V600E mutation responsive to systemic therapy with BRAF and MEK inhibitors. While systemic therapy would not be appropriate in patients with local disease alone, it may act therapeutically in cases of higher stage ocular surface and eyelid melanoma.
本报告展示了一例独特的结膜黑色素瘤病例,该病例携带BRAF V600E突变,对BRAF和MEK抑制剂的全身治疗有反应。虽然全身治疗仅对局部疾病患者不合适,但在较高分期的眼表和眼睑黑色素瘤病例中可能具有治疗作用。
