Role of Radiotherapy in Management of Choroidal Melanoma: A Review

Delhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2010
Choroidal melanoma is the most common primary malignant intraocular tumour. Traditional management of choroidal melanoma is enucleation and local resection. Radiotherapy is emerging as an alternative to surgery, salvaging the vision of the patient.

Chromosomal Gains and Losses in Uveal Melanomas Detected by Comparative Genomic Hybridization [PDF]

, 1994
Eleven uveal melanomas were analyzed using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). The most abundant genetic changes were loss of chromosome 3, overrepresentation of 6p, loss of 6q, and multiplication of 8q.
