Abstract

We present the case of a woman in her late 40s who presented with an iris lesion extending to the ciliary body and mature white cataract with a visual acuity of perception of light in her right eye. The tumour was managed with Bhabha Atomic Research Centre Iodine-125 (BARC I-125) Ocu-Prosta seeds plaque therapy with the amniotic membrane buffer technique. No corneal complications or secondary glaucoma were seen over a 6-month follow-up, and a reduction in tumour size was observed on MRI. Ten months post corneoscleral plaque brachytherapy (PB), the patient underwent phacoemulsification in the same eye and achieved a best corrected visual acuity of 20/40. This case highlights the use of cost-effective indigenous I-125 Ocu-Prosta seeds with amniotic membrane in the successful management of iridociliary melanoma, which has not been reported so far.

使用“BARC I-125 Ocu-Prosta种子”的角膜巩膜斑块近距离治疗虹膜睫状体黑色素瘤
我们报告一位40多岁的女性,她的虹膜病变延伸到睫状体和成熟的白色白内障,在她的右眼有光的感觉。肿瘤采用Bhabha原子研究中心碘125 (BARC I-125) Ocu-Prosta种子斑块治疗和羊膜缓冲技术。在6个月的随访中,没有发现角膜并发症或继发性青光眼,MRI观察到肿瘤大小缩小。角膜巩膜斑块近距离治疗(PB) 10个月后,患者同眼行超声乳化术,最佳矫正视力为20/40。本病例强调了使用具有成本效益的本土I-125 Ocu-Prosta种子与羊膜在虹膜睫状体黑色素瘤的成功治疗中,迄今尚未报道。
