This case report demostrates an unusual occurence of peripunctal nevus and uveal melanoma, in which the clinical diganosis of uveal melanoma was masked by the atypical presentation as phthisis bulbi. Nevertheless, peculiar scleral pigment hinted at a possible intraocular tumour. The importance of meticulous clinical examination in assessment of ocular and periocular pigmented lesions is demonstrated. Further, clinicopathological differentials of correlation scleral pigmentation in diffuse necrotic uveal melanoma are illustrated.
本病例报告展示了一种不同寻常的现象,即围睛部痣和葡萄膜黑色素瘤,其中葡萄膜黑色素瘤的临床诊断被典型的眼球痨表现所掩盖。然而,巩膜的特殊色素提示可能存在眼内肿瘤。本病例强调了细致的临床检查在评估眼部和眼周色素性病变中的重要性。此外,还阐述了弥漫性坏死性葡萄膜黑色素瘤中巩膜色素沉着的临床病理鉴别。
