  • Title: [Enucleation in patients with intraocular melanomas].
    Author: Stoiukhina AS, Davydov DV.
    Journal: Vestn Oftalmol; 2010; 126(2):51-6. PubMed ID: 21105381.
    Abstract:
    This paper analyzes the data available in the literature on the incidence of uveal melanomas. It historically describes enucleation and the specific features of its performance in patients with and without uveal melanoma. The specific features of enucleation in patients with uveal melanoma, indications for locomotor stump formation, and procedures for calculating the parameters of an implant are considered. Analysis of the data available in the literature shows that there is presently no unambiguous opinion as to the most rational enucleation modes and as to the capacities and types of used implants as a whole. This primarily applies to enucleation used in patients with intraocular neoplasms.
