摘要
The treatment of choroidal melanoma needs multidisciplinary efforts. Nowadays most of the tumors are treated by radiation, and enucleation of the eye is rare. Technical developments in lasers and eye surgery procedures have influenced the novel therapeutic modalities in recent years. However, the rate of metastatic spread remains unchanged, and to date no established adjuvant therapy exists. The treatment of patients with stage IV disease has achieved some success in the recent past, which raises the hope of developing an adjuvant therapy.
