Recurrence and massive extraocular extension of choroidal malignant melanoma after vitrectomy and endoresection

Abstract

Vitrectomy and endoresection is an alternative to enucleation for the treatment of large malignant choroidal melanoma. We report a rare case of extensive recurrence of choroidal malignant melanoma with extraocular extension 11 years after surgical endoresection without adjuvant treatment.
