“…Many descriptive studies summarizing the survival of treated patients, local tumor control rates, secondary enucleation rates, and changes in visual acuity following Ru-106/Rh-106 plaque therapy have since been published. The most recent comprehensive follow-up report based on our personal experience with Ru-106/Rh-106 applicator therapy for choroidal and ciliochoroidal melanomas summarized our results in a mean postirradiation follow-up time among surviving patients of 6.7 years [15]. This paper reports the results after longer follow-up.…”

“…Irradiation methods, dosage, and therapeutic results of brachytherapy with Ru-160/Rh-106 plaques have been described in earlier papers [13][14][15][16]20]. Most of the critical objections [18] concerned the lack of both long-term follow-up and randomized prospective studies.…”

“…A literatura tem demonstrado que as principais complicações associadas à braquiterapia são as tardias e que sua incidência está em torno de 40% (3,8,10,19,29) . Fatores aparentemente envolvidos são: o tamanho e a localização do tumor tratado assim como o isótopo e a dose radioativa utilizada.…”

“…Vários isótopos podem ser utilizados (9) : Cobalto 60, Rutenium 106 (10) , Palladium 103 (11) , Iridium 192 (12) , Sumarium 145 e o Iodo 125 (13) , considerado na atualidade o isótopo de eleição, tendo em vista a proteção radiológica que o mesmo proporciona para as estruturas anexas do globo ocular e para a equipe cirúrgica.…”
