Abstract
Locoregional disease remains a challenging problem in cutaneous melanoma and uveal melanoma. Arterial-based chemoperfusion strategies enable regional therapy delivery with minimal systemic toxicity. Herein we discuss intra-arterial therapies for in-transit cutaneous melanoma of the extremity including hyperthermic-isolated limb perfusion and isolated limb infusion. We also discuss open (isolated hepatic perfusion) and percutaneous hepatic perfusion techniques for isolated liver metastases from uveal melanoma. We review the current state of knowledge with respect to indications, procedural techniques, outcomes and expected toxicities for intra-arterial chemoperfusion for locoregional melanoma metastases.
