  • Evaluation of two unusual cases of oral mucosal melanoma through clinical examination and imaging.
  • Utilization of histopathology and immunohistochemistry for diagnosis.
  • Documentation of multimodal treatment approaches and follow-up outcomes.
  • The first case showed poor response to chemotherapy and an unfavorable outcome in a middle-aged female with widespread metastasis.
  • The second case revealed successful disease control in a young male following surgical resection, proton therapy, and immunotherapy.
