Abstract
This review explores the current literature on conjunctival melanoma, a rare and complex periocular neoplasm, emphasizing the absence of a standardized treatment protocol and the associated management challenges. It examines the clinical, genetic, and histological features of conjunctival melanoma, alongside diagnostic methodologies and treatment strategies, drawing on the most recent bibliographic data. The literature was systematically reviewed using the PubMed database, offering insights into future research directions and highlighting innovative treatment approaches, particularly for advanced-stage disease.
期刊介绍：
Pigment Cell & Melanoma Researchpublishes manuscripts on all aspects of pigment cells including development, cell and molecular biology, genetics, diseases of pigment cells including melanoma. Papers that provide insights into the causes and progression of melanoma including the process of metastasis and invasion, proliferation, senescence, apoptosis or gene regulation are especially welcome, as are papers that use the melanocyte system to answer questions of general biological relevance. Papers that are purely descriptive or make only minor advances to our knowledge of pigment cells or melanoma in particular are not suitable for this journal. Keywords
Pigment Cell & Melanoma Research, cell biology, melatonin, biochemistry, chemistry, comparative biology, dermatology, developmental biology, genetics, hormones, intracellular signalling, melanoma, molecular biology, ocular and extracutaneous melanin, pharmacology, photobiology, physics, pigmentary disorders
