Abstract

Bilateral diffuse uveal melanocytic proliferation (B-DUMP) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome typically presenting with bilateral visual loss. B-DUMP is associated with extraocular systemic malignancies with the most common being lung cancer in males and uro-gynaecological cancer in females (mainly ovarian cancer). Cutaneous and/or mucosal involvement in patients with B-DUMP has been reported but it is not well characterised. Herein, we present a female in her 70s with diagnosis of stage IV vaginal clear-cell carcinoma and metastatic melanoma of unknown primary that developed progressive bilateral loss of visual acuity compatible with 'B-DUMP'. Simultaneously, she developed multifocal bilateral bluish-greyish patches on the skin that were shown to have a proliferation of dermal melanocytes. We propose that the clinical and histopathologic cutaneous findings seen in patients with B-DUMP be termed 'diffuse integumentary melanocytic proliferation (DIMP)'.
