Fig. 36. Fascicular melanoma. This amelanotic melanoma has a striking fascicular appearance. The nuclei of its constituent spindle cells form rows that resemble the Antoni A pattern seen in schwannoma. The fascicular category of uveal melanoma has been removed from the modern revision of Callender's classification because cellular arrangement does not appear to affect prognosis.
