Abstract
We present the case of a 42-year-old female who presented to our clinic for phosphenes in the left eye, occurring along with eye movement. A diagnosis of choroidal melanoma suspect was made. Due to the patient's profile, young, active woman, surgeon, and the limited therapeutic options in Romania, a conservative treatment and brachytherapy were chosen, which were successfully performed abroad. The patient has been followed-up, so far, for five years after the procedure, with spectacular results.Entities:
