TL;DR: This study performed multi-region DNA sequencing of primary uveal melanomas and their matched metastases from 35 patients and observed previously unknown driver mutations and established the order in which these and known driver mutations undergo selection.

TL;DR: The prognostic value of the AJCC staging system can be improved by adding information regarding chromosome 3 and 8q status, which allows a more accurate prognostication in uveal melanoma.

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of the status of chromosomes 3 and 8q on the incidence of local recurrence (LR) from uveal melanoma (UM) was determined. But, the authors did not consider the effects of the chromosome status of the primary tumor on the overall incidence of LR.

Risk of New Primary Cancer in Patients with Posterior Uveal Melanoma: A National Cohort Study
Mette Bagger,Vanna Albieri,Tine Gadegaard Hindsø,Karin Wadt,Steffen Heegaard,Klaus Kaae Andersen,Jens Folke Kiilgaard +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with posterior uveal melanoma have an increased risk of new primary cancer independent of SES, and the specific cancer types did not differ compared to the controls.
