EOD Primary Tumor

Notes

**Note 1:** **Uveal melanomas** * Uveal melanomas arise most commonly in the choroid, less frequently in the ciliary body, and least often in the iris. * Melanomas of the iris tend to be small, and those arising from or extending to the ciliary body typically are large. **Note 2:** **Ciliary body and choroid melanomas** * Primary ciliary body and choroidal melanomas are classified according to four tumor size categories. The tumor size categories are based on the largest basal and thickness. * Basal diameter is collected in data item *Measured Basal Diameter* [NAACCR Date Item #3887] * Thickness is collected in the data item *Measured Thickness* [NAACCR Data Item #3888] **Note 3:** **Discrete tumor deposit(s)** * Discrete tumor deposit(s) in the orbit that are not contiguous to the eye are recorded in lymph nodes (See EOD Regional Nodes).
