Transarterial chemoembolization of liver metastases from uveal melanoma after failure of systemic therapy: toxicity and outcome.

abstract：:The management of melanoma brain metastases (MBM) includes different therapeutic modalities, such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite the choice of treatments, survival remains poor, exceeding 1 year only in patients with solitary metastases and absence of extracranial disease. A total of 115 consecutiv...
