摘要：
Adenoma of retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) is a rare tumor that can simulate choroidal melanoma. Features that help differentiate RPE adenoma from melanoma have been elucidated. Most RPE adenomas are located in peripheral retina and it is extremely rare for an adenoma of the RPE to arise posteriorly and grow to obscure the optic disk. We report a clinicopathologic correlation of a juxtapapillary RPE adenoma that enlarged and covered the optic disk, suggesting malignant transformation of a melanocytoma into a malignant melanoma.
