Histopathological findings in human choroidal melanomas after transpupillary thermotherapy.
AIMS The effect of transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) on human choroidal melanomas was investigated by means of histopathology. METHODS Before enucleation TTT was performed in 11 eyes with a xenon are photocoagulator with a red filter or a diode laser at 810 nm. The exposure time was 1 minute; the estimated temperature at the top of the tumour was about 65 degrees C. RESULTS Seven of 11 tum...
