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...
