Although spontaneous regression of uveal malignant melanoma is rare, its occurrence is not uncommon in cutaneous melanomas. We report a 15-year follow-up of an enlarging posterior pigmented tumor. It initially appeared to spontaneously regress into a flat chorioretinal scar, but, ten years later, it grew markedly and the eye was enucleated. Histopathologic changes similar to those found in regressed cutaneous melanomas were located in the region of the chorioretinal scar.
尽管葡萄膜恶性黑色素瘤的自发消退很少见,但在皮肤黑色素瘤中其发生并不罕见。我们报告了一例对一个不断增大的后部色素性肿瘤进行的15年随访。它最初似乎自发消退为一个扁平的脉络膜视网膜瘢痕,但十年后,它显著生长,眼球被摘除。在脉络膜视网膜瘢痕区域发现了与消退的皮肤黑色素瘤中所见相似的组织病理学变化。
