Abstract

SummaryThis presentation will provide an update on the 8th Edition of the Tumor Node and Metastasis (TNM) system for malignant tumours of the conjunctiva, which can be broadly grouped into conjunctival carcinomas and melanomas. The 8th Edition of the TNM staging of these tumours is presently being finalised by members of the Ophthalmic Oncology Tumour Force, a mixed and experienced international group of ophthalmologists, oncologists and pathologists who have extensively reviewed evidence in the literature to improve upon the 7th TNM Edition. Following sign‐off by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), the 8th Edition for all tumours, including those pertaining to the eye, the ocular adnexa and the orbit, will be available in the Autumn of this year, around the time of the EVER meeting.
