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.
在过去几十年中,葡萄膜黑色素瘤的局部肿瘤控制情况有所改善。然而,大型葡萄膜黑色素瘤转移导致的5年死亡率仍然很高。最近,孤立肝灌注疗法和化疗在提高转移灶生存率方面均取得了令人鼓舞的结果。因此,早期筛查,尤其是针对肝转移的筛查,变得势在必行。
