摘要：

The cause of most uveal melanomas is unknown, but some may be inherited, as several reports of families with uveal melanoma appear in the literature. We describe two families in which two members had uveal melanoma, a pair of brothers in one, and a mother and daughter in the other. The newer evidence supporting a genetic basis for some uveal melanomas is reviewed.
