Ocular treatment of choroidal melanoma in relation to the prevention of metastatic death - A personal view.

Progress in retinal and eye research - 1 Sept 2018

Damato Bertil

Abstract excerpt

About 50% of patients with choroidal melanoma develop metastatic disease, despite successful eradication of the primary tumor. Patient care is complicated by the fact that we do not know whether ocular treatment ever influences survival and if so in whom. Some authorities believe that metastatic spread is never preventable, because it has always occurred by the time the ocular tumor is detected. Others hold the...
