    As one of Dr. McCannel’s Ocular Melanoma patients, I rate this 5 stars! Wish I’d listened to it three months ago but I have been in terrific hands at UCLA and so fortunate to have Dr. McCannel as my treating physician. Easy to understand and well done.

    I would have stressed that the presented pt (20:01) didn't want an enucleation because that's the only reason why you accept ' a good tumour control' after 1 year.
    And maybe he had e disomy chromosome 3 and class 1 and you can take this risk (leaving the tumour in the eye) in concertation with the patient.
