Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare cancer whose prognosis remains poor, despite the considerable advances in early diagnosis and quality of care achieved in developed countries. However, its annual incidence has been rising steadily over the last twenty years. We diagnose 2 to 3 cases of uveal melanoma per year. In the Algerian context, we have identified factors that seem to justify our study, notably a lack of information on its epidemiology, and real difficulties in its management.Our results show that our patients are affected at a younger age, in comparison with European and North American populations. The main characteristics of neoformations are greater thickness and smaller diameter, with a high proportion of Bruch's lamina rupture.
