Abstract:
Local tumour control in uveal melanoma has improved in the last decades. However, 5-year mortality due to metastases from large uveal melanomas remains high. Recently both isolated liver perfusion therapy and chemotherapy have reached encouraging results in improving metastasis survival. As such screening at an early stage, especially for liver metastases, becomes imperative.
