Bilateral Melanoma of the Choroid Associated with Leukemia and Meningioma

Primary bilateral uveal melanoma: a population‐based study and systematic review

“…Table provides an overview of the 46 cases of primary bilateral UM reported from eight countries described in the English language literature between 1950 and 2016 . Case reports comprised the largest percentage of studies (72.0%), and the largest case series described eight patients .…”

Second Primary Tumors following a Diagnosis of Meningioma in Sweden, 1958–1997

“…This result is consistent with an increase noted in the Norwegian meningioma cohort (relative risk = 5.75, p ! 0.05) [18] . Thyroid tumors are also radiosensitive tumors.…”

“…Several case studies have reported meningioma and melanoma coexisting in patients with other tumors [17][18][19][20] and two case reports indicate that meningiomas can simulate primary melanomas [21,22] suggesting that diagnostic bias may occur. As brain-melanoma families have been reported [23] and in some of these families p16 mutations have been identified [24] , there may be a potential common genetic effect.…”

“…In the United States, one of the first cases of bilateral uveal melanoma was reported by Wiesinger in 1959 [3]. In a study by Singh and colleagues, primary bilateral uveal melanoma was found in <2% of cases [4].…”
