Iterative treatment with surgery and radiofrequency ablation of uveal melanoma liver metastasis: Retrospective analysis of a series of very long-term survivors.

Background: After treatment of primary ocular uveal melanoma (UM), up to 50% of patients will develop metastases, mostly in the liver. Systemic treatments do not provide any overall survival benefit for these patients and surgery remains the most effective therapy for selected patients. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) alone or in combination with surgery is frequently used to spare hepatic parenchyma.

Uterine myometrial tumors are predominantly benign conditions that affect one-third of women and represent the main indication for hysterectomy. Preoperative imaging is of utmost importance for characterization and for precise mapping of myometrial tumors to best guide therapeutic strategy. New minimally invasive therapeutic strategies including morcellation, myolysis, uterine artery embolization and image-guided radiofrequency or focused ultrasound ablation have been developed for the treatment of uterine leiomyoma.
