摘要

葡萄膜黑色素瘤(UM)在非裔美国人中并不常见。由于其罕见性,非裔美国人可能不会怀疑 UM,从而导致延误诊断。此外,社会经济因素也可能是延误诊断的原因之一。由于种族色素沉着,临床和超声特征可能不典型,因此有必要进行诊断性细针穿刺活检。在此,我们报告了 12 例患有 UM 的非裔美国人的系列病例,重点介绍了临床特征和诊断难题。

Uveal melanoma in African Americans: Diagnostic challenges

Uveal melanoma (UM) is uncommon in African Americans. Owing to its rarity, UM may not be suspected in African Americans leading to delayed diagnosis. In addition, socioeconomic factors may also play a role in delayed diagnosis. Clinical and ultrasonographic features may be atypical due to racial pigmentation, necessitating diagnostic fine needle aspiration biopsy. Herein, we report an illustrative case series of 12 African Americans with UM highlighting clinical features and diagnostic challenges.
