Summary DDx: Amelanotic Choroidal Melanoma Metastasis 62 y/o WF an elevated choroidal lesion in her right eye measuring 12mm X 10mm X 5mm DDx: Amelanotic Choroidal Melanoma Metastasis PLAN: Obtain FNA and place plaque for treatment. Melanoma systemic testing is
FNA of Choroidal Mass H&E Stain Sox10 S100 (Sample) Pleomorphic polyhedral cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm and a larger, rounder nucleus than spindle cells. SOX10 is a nuclear transcription factor that plays an important role in melanocytic cell differentiation The S100 family of proteins is a member of the calcium-binding EF-hand superfamily http://pathinfo.wikia.com/wiki/S100_Protein
Choroidal Melanoma Risk Factors To Find Small Ocular Melanoma Using Helpful Hints Daily Thickness > 2mm Subretinal fluid Symptoms Orange Pigment Margin w/in 3mm of the optic disc Ultrasonographic hollowness Absence of halo Absence of drusen Melanoma metastasis at 10 years was 10% for small melanoma (<3-mm thickness), 23% for medium-sized melanoma (3.1- to 8-mm thickness), and 52% for large melanoma (>8-mm thickness). More specifically, metastasis (per millimeter of thickness) at 10 years was found in 7% (0-1 mm), 13% (1-2 mm), 10% (2-3 mm), 16% (3-4 mm), 24% (4-5 mm), 27% (5-6 mm), 27% (6-7 mm), 39% (7-8 mm), 49% (8-9 mm), 53% (9-10 mm), and 58% (>10 mm) of cases. It is thus evident from these studies that tumor size strongly correlates with patient prognosis. Early detection of uveal melanoma at a time when the malignancy is small is critical in improving patients' survival. A halo refers to a pigmented choroidal nevus surrounded by a circular band of depigmentation.) istogenesis of cutaneous halo nevus involves damage to the nevus cells with vacuolization of cells and reduction in melanosomes in the halo. Invading macrophages display large aggregates of melanosomes. In the halo, the vacuolated melanocytes show coagulation of cytoplasm and autophagocytosis of melanosomes Shields CL, Furuta M, Berman EL, Zahler JD, Hoberman DM, Dinh DH, Mashayekhi A, Shields JA.

Choroidal Melanoma Most common primary intraocular malignancy Age normally around 60 Histopathologically: spindle and epithelioid cell type Orbital spread through scleral channels and vortex veins Metastasis commonly found in the liver, and only 1-2 % of pts have detectable metastases at the time of presentation Mortality at 10 years is 50% CM is 80% of all uveal melanoma but is relaitly uncommon.
Amelanotic Choroidal Masses Differential Diagnosis Epidemiology Signs Symptoms Amelanotic Melanoma 50s and 60s White, blue-eyed blondes Orange pigment, serous retinal detachment, low internal reflectivity Asymptomatic blurring of visionocular pain proptosis Choroidal Metastasis Males: lung (40%), GI (9%), kidney (8%) Females: Breast (68%), lung (12%) Yellow in color, subretinal fluid, high internal reflectivity Visual symptoms 90%: burred vision, flashes/floaters, and pain Choroidal hemangioma Rare, likely congenital, Caucasians Amelanotic, high internal reflectivity No symptoms until adulthood, Can get blurred vision 2ndary to RD http://www.slideshare.net/mtodman/choroidal-melanoma 88% of metastases are to the choroid, then iris and CB Choroidal can be bilateral and multifocal and have a lot of subretinal fluid if the mets are active. Very rarely metasis can be hollow FA and ICG for chroidal hemangioma http://www.eyerounds.org/cases/65-Choroidal-Hemangioma-Photodynamic-Therapy.htm http://atlasgeneticsoncology.org/Tumors/EyeTumOverviewID5272.html Differential Diagnosis Epidemiology Signs Symptoms Amelanotic Melanoma 50s and 60s White, blue-eyed blondes Orange pigment, serous retinal detachment, low internal reflectivity Asymptomatic blurring of visionocular pain proptosis Choroidal Metastasis Males: lung (40%), GI (9%), kidney (8%) Females: Breast (68%), lung (12%) Yellow in color, subretinal fluid, high internal reflectivity Visual symptoms 90%: burred vision, flashes/floaters, and pain Choroidal hemangioma Rare, likely congenital, Caucasians Amelanotic, high internal reflectivity No symptoms until adulthood, Can get blurred vision 2ndary to RD
Conclusion Differentiate between choroidal nevus and choroidal melanoma To Find Small Ocular Melanoma Using Helpful Hints Daily Differential diagnosis of amelanotic choroidal masses Distinguish between amelanotic choroidal melanoma and metastasis to the choroid Sai chavala
