Overview
Disease name] must be differentiated from retinoblastoma, uveal metastasis, choroidal detachment, choroidal hemangioma, choroidal cyst, uveal neurofibroma, and uveal schwannoma.[1][2]
Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis of uveal melanoma includes the following:[1][2]
- Pigmented nevi
- Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium
- Optic disc melanocytoma
- Hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium
- Hyperplasia of retinal pigment epithelium
- Choroidal hemangioma
- Choroidal metastasis
- Choroidal osteoma
- Peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy
- Choroidal hemmorrhage
- Hemorrhagic detachment of retina and retinal pigment epithelium
- Posterior nodular scleritis
- Intraocular leiomyoma
- Adenoma of retinal pigmented epithelium
- Retinoblastoma
- Uveal metastases
- Choroidal detachment
- Choroidal cyst
