“…141,143 It has been hypothesized that LMM may be underdiagnosed because it is a slow-growing, chronic tumor of elderly adults that may be misdiagnosed as solar lentigo. 145 In addition to primary tumors, eyelid melanoma can occur as a metastasis from CM elsewhere on the body. 145 In addition to primary tumors, eyelid melanoma can occur as a metastasis from CM elsewhere on the body.…”

“…141 Atypical presentations include amelanotic CM and histologic subtypes such as desmoplastic melanoma, including a reported case of invasive periocular desmoplastic melanoma with angiomatoid differentiation. 145 In addition to primary tumors, eyelid melanoma can occur as a metastasis from CM elsewhere on the body. 146 Periocular CM has been reported to arise in a radiation field.…”

Timely diagnosis and management of periocular malignancies is essential because of their proximity to and potential to invade vital structures such as the orbit, sinuses, and brain. Surgical excision remains the standard of care for the majority of periorbital malignancies, but given the sensitive anatomic location, tissue-sparing techniques with margin control such as Mohs micrographic surgery are the preferred method for most nonmelanoma skin cancers. Depending on tumor type, other treatment modalities may include radiation, chemotherapy, cryosurgery, topical medications, and photodynamic therapy.

“…Cutaneous melanoma is characterized by clinical and histopathological variants, the latter including an increasing number of different designations [1] (including nevoid, follicular, animal, spitzoid). Rarely reported in the literature, angiomatoid pattern is an extremely uncommon histological melanoma variant [2,3]. It was first described by Adler et al in 1997 in a patient with cutaneous metastatic melanoma of unknown origin [4].…”

“…One may consider that other unreported cases of epithelioid angiosarcoma may initially have been diagnosed as malignant melanoma prior to availability of endothelial markers. Conversely, one must be cognizant of angiomatoid malignant melanoma which can demonstrate S‐100 positive tumor cells lining vessel‐like spaces 9 . In addition, angiomatoid malignant melanoma also presents on the head and neck, similar to epithelioid angiosarcoma.…”
