Abstract

Purpose or Objective:To present the results of a patient therapeutic approach using a second course of Interventional Radiotherapy (Brachytherapy) in a setting of patients with local recurrence of uveal melanoma. Material and Methods: Patients who had already undergone ocular brachytherapy at IOC (Interventional Oncology Center) of the “Gemelli ART” (Advanced Radiation Therapy) of Rome were considered. In this group, five patients with a local recurrence that received a second course of treatment with a plaque were included in our analysis. The reirradiation was performed with a plaque of Ruthenium-106 (dose prescribed to the apex 100 Gy) or of Iodine-125 (dose prescribed to the apex 85Gy).
