The Preservation of Vision by Treatment of Intraocular Tumors with Light Coagulation

Tumor Regression after Photocoagulation of Malignant Melanomas of the Choroid: An Ultrasonographic Study

“…Encour aged by the initial success of this method of treatment, results in large series of patients were reported [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Later François [7,8] and Riaskoff [9] also reported their results of this treatment.…”

Photodynamic therapy in the management of juxtapapillary capillary haemangiomas

“…Due to their typical appearance and accessibility, peripheral retinal capillary haemangiomas are more easily diagnosed and managed. Xenon‐arc photocoagulation, 6 argon laser, 7,8 cryotherapy, radiation therapy 9 and retinal surgery 10 are all well‐reported treatment modalities.…”

Histopathological changes in malignant melanomas of the choroid after cobalt plaque therapy.

“…Many attempts have been made, therefore, to develop methods of conservative treatment for this type of malignant disease, whereby the tumour may be destroyed and some useful vision preserved in the treated eye. The methods adopted have included destruction of the neoplasm by diathermy (Weve, 1935;Goldsmith, 1943;Melchers, 1953;Boniuk and Girard, 1965;Davidorf et al, 1970); ionising radiation using radon seeds (Moore et al, 1931;Newman et al, 1970), radium discs (Stallard, 1952), cobalt-60 gamma-ray applicators (Stallard, 1959(Stallard, , 1968Bedford, 1968;Long et al, 1971), and ruthenium-106 beta-ray applicators (Lommatzsch, 1973); light coagulation (Meyer-Schwickerath, 1961;Lund, 1962Lund, , 1966Curtin and Norton, 1963;Makley et al, 1965;Hepler et al, 1968;Francois, 1965, 1968a andDufour et al, 1968;Vogel, 1972Vogel, , 1973, and cryotherapy (Lincoff et al, 1967;Campinchi, 1968;Davidorf et al, 1970). Others have attempted to save the eye by surgical techniques as by choroidectomy (Stallard, 1973).…”
