Ciliary body tumors can remain undetected and achieve large dimensions. Pigmented ciliary body tumors include: melanoma, leiomyoma and melanocytoma, however correct diagnosis may require tissue diagnosis with immunohistochemical stains.
Two men presented with identical ciliochoroidal tumors. Both had darkly pigmented dome-shaped anterior uveal masses, exudative retinal detachments and transillumination shadowing. Ocular PET-CT imaging revealed that both were metabolically active consistent with a diagnosis of cancer. However, immunohistochemical examination revealed one a leiomyoma and the other melanoma.
Uveal leiomyoma can be an indistinguishable doppelgänger to ciliochoroidal melanoma, where the diagnosis can only be established by immunohistopathology.
睫状体肿瘤可能未被发现并长得很大。色素性睫状体肿瘤包括:黑色素瘤、平滑肌瘤和黑素细胞瘤,然而正确诊断可能需要通过免疫组织化学染色进行组织诊断。
两名男性患有相同的睫状体脉络膜肿瘤。两人均有色素沉着明显的圆顶状前葡萄膜肿物、渗出性视网膜脱离和透照阴影。眼部PET-CT成像显示两者均有代谢活性,符合癌症诊断。然而,免疫组织化学检查显示其中一例为平滑肌瘤,另一例为黑色素瘤。
葡萄膜平滑肌瘤可能与睫状体脉络膜黑色素瘤难以区分,只有通过免疫组织病理学才能确诊。
