Transconjunctival cryopexy was applied to a malignant melanoma of the ciliary body and choroid of a 46-year-old white man. The tumor immediately became gray-white and pigment cells were liberated in the anterior chamber. Subsequently, an enucleation was performed which showed a localized area of cryodestruction of the melanoma which was lined by macrophages. The significance of this finding in implications for the use of cryopexy in the management of melanomas are discussed.
对一名46岁白人男性的睫状体和脉络膜恶性黑色素瘤实施了经结膜冷冻疗法。肿瘤立即变为灰白色,色素细胞在前房内游离。随后进行了眼球摘除术,结果显示黑色素瘤有局部冷冻破坏区域,该区域由巨噬细胞包绕。本文讨论了这一发现对于冷冻疗法在黑色素瘤治疗中应用的意义。
