Abstract
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare primary malignant tumor originating from uveal melanocytes (choroid (90%), ciliary body (6%), iris (4%)) of the eye. According to the aggregate data, the tumor incidence is 5.2 cases per 1 million population. In Russia this value varies between 6.23–8 cases per 1 million adult population across the regions. UM most often spreads to the liver (89–93%). The clinical case of using transarterial chemoembolization (carboplatin) in combination with immunotherapy (nivolumab + ipilimumab) in patients with metastatic liver disease from UM is provided. The disease control within 12 months has been achieved, which, in turn, demonstrates the possibility and efficacy of multidisciplinary approach.
