DNA index and S phase fraction in uveal malignant melanomas.
AIMS To predict 5 year survival in patients with uveal malignant melanomas DNA indices were studied. METHODS Using 45 paraffin embedded uveal malignant melanomas, the DNA index and S phase fraction of each tumour were the predictor variables recorded. RESULTS Using the Cox proportional hazards model, aneuploid tumours and tumours which had an S phase fraction greater than 4% were significan...
متن کاملPhototherapy of posterior uveal melanomas.
The results of phototherapy on a small series of 19 patients with uveal melanomas are presented. Laser radiation at a wavelength of 620 to 630 nm was used in conjunction with a 5 to 7.5 mg/kg dose of haematoporphyrin derivative administered 24 hours before treatment, with total doses/treatment averaging 960 J/cm2. Eleven patients received two treatments, and one received a third. The longest du...
متن کاملDescriptive epidemiology of malignant mucosal and uveal melanomas and adnexal skin carcinomas in Europe.
This work provides descriptive epidemiological data of malignant mucosal and uveal melanomas and adnexal skin carcinomas in Europe as defined as in the RARECARE project. We analysed 8669 incident cases registered in the period 1995-2002 by 76 population-based cancer registries (CRs), and followed up for vital status to 31st December 2003. Age-standardised incidence to the European standard popu...
متن کاملS100 immunophenotypes of uveal melanomas.
To determine whether ocular melanomas are immunophenotypically identical to cutaneous melanomas, 34 primary and metastatic choroidal melanomas representing all major histotypes defined by the Callender's classification, plus one melanoma of the iris and one conjunctival melanoma, were subjected to a panel of immunostains designed to distinguish anaplastic biopsies of cutaneous melanomas from ca...
متن کاملDemonstration of biogenic amines and adrenergic innervation in uveal malignant melanomas by the histoflurometric method.
Clinical and histologic studies were performed on 25 patients with malignant melanomas of the ciliary body and choroid. Portions of fresh tumor were quick frozen and processed by the histofluorometric technique to demonstrate the presence of biogenic amines. Separate portions of each tumor were fixed and processed for routine light microscopy. Specific fluorescence was visible in 21 of 23 pigme...
