A 74-year-old woman with Carney complex (CNC) and complaints of poor vision was found, on ophthalmic examination, to have a pigmented tumor involving the peripheral choroid and ciliary body in her right eye. The eye was enucleated and showed a ciliochoroidal melanoma with marked pleomorphism. The tumor did not recur or metastasize after almost 10 years of follow-up, and the patient died of unrelated causes. Molecular studies revealed a complex genome with multiple whole-chromosome losses including monosomy of chromosomes 1, 2 (including loss of CNC2at 2p16), 14, 17 (including loss of a copy of PRAKA1 at 17q24.2), 18, 19, 21, 22, and X. No monosomy 3 was observed. This is only the second case of uveal melanoma in a patient with CNC, raising the possibility that this might represent a rare component of this syndrome.

This case report demostrates an unusual occurence of peripunctal nevus and uveal melanoma, in which the clinical diganosis of uveal melanoma was masked by the atypical presentation as phthisis bulbi. Nevertheless, peculiar scleral pigment hinted at a possible intraocular tumour. The importance of meticulous clinical examination in assessment of ocular and periocular pigmented lesions is demonstrated. Further, clinicopathological differentials of correlation scleral pigmentation in diffuse necrotic uveal melanoma are illustrated.
