Abstract:
Local tumour control in conjunctival melanoma has improved in recent years. However the tumour-related death rate of these patients is still 14% at 5 years up to 33% at 15 years. With the introduction of sentinel node biopsies for conjunctival melanomas with a poor prognosis and screening for locoregional and distant metasases prognosis might be improved.
