ABSTRACT
An 81-year-old female patient experienced a rapid increase in the volume of a rice-sized black mass on the left eye over a period of six months. The mass extended out of the eye and exhibited surface erosion with accompanying hemorrhage. Following a live tissue examination and histopathology after orbital exenteration under general anesthesia, the diagnosis of a giant malignant palpebral conjunctival melanoma of the spindle cell subtype was confirmed. The patient refused to undergo local radiation therapy or systemic chemotherapy and died from the disease six months later.
