  • Analysis of multiple factors affecting the prognosis of local excision for uveal melanoma

    Objective To observe the therapeutic effects and security of the local resection for uveal melanoma, and to detect the factors which affect the prognosis. Methods The clinical data of 45 patients with uveal melanoma who had undergone local resection after examined by histopathology were retrospectively analyzed, including the age,sex,the longest diameter, the location of the tumor,with or without retinal detachment, intraocular pressure (IOP) and visual acuities before and after the operation, and the visual acuity. The relationship between the therapeutic method and the survival prognosis was analyzed. COX regression model was set up with knubbly metastasis relapse prognosis and the multiple factors which was the assistive variables. Results Among these factors, the metastasis and relapse had obvious relation to the longest diameter and height of the tumor(P=0.04), the IOP after operation(P=0.03), pathologic classification (P=0.04)、with or without scleral infiltration (P=0.03)、the location of the tumor (P=0.01) and complete or incomplete resection (P=0.00). The period when the metastasis and relapse of tumor were most likely to happen was 20 to 40 months. Conclusion Local resection is one of the effective methods for uveal melanoma. These patients should be followed up closely from 20 to 40 months after operation, and if necessary, should be treated combined with other treatments. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 154-156)
