An adult male Muscovy (Cairina moschata) X Peking (Anas platyrhynchos) duck had a primary malignant uveal melanoma with periocular extension involving the left eye. The periocular mass displaced the globe 1.5 cm laterally. Thoracic metastasis of the ocular neoplasm infiltrated the pectoral muscles, rib cage, and cranial lung lobe on the left side, causing diminished voluntary motion of the left wing. The left orbit was exenterated, but tumor regrowth was evident within 2 weeks. This case was unusual because melanocytic neoplasms are rare in birds.
一只成年雄性疣鼻栖鸭（疣鼻天鹅属）与北京鸭（绿头鸭属）的杂交鸭患有原发性恶性葡萄膜黑色素瘤，并伴有眼周扩散，累及左眼。眼周肿块使眼球向外移位1.5厘米。眼部肿瘤的胸段转移浸润了左侧胸肌、肋骨和肺叶上部，导致左翼自主运动减弱。左侧眼眶被摘除，但2周内肿瘤明显复发。该病例较为罕见，因为黑素细胞肿瘤在鸟类中很少见。
