Purpose: To report successful ring-shaped iodine-125 plaque brachytherapy for conjunctival melanoma.Observations: Eye Physics (EP) plaque brachytherapy, designed with Plaque Simulator software, proved Raypak ELS 3-Series Heater Parts to be an effective treatment modality with some corneal irritation and no recurrence at 12-months post radiation.Conclusion and importance: Management of Nitric Oxide conjunctival melanoma is complicated by the lack of gold standard adjuvant treatments.I-125 EP plaque brachytherapy represents a viable option for these malignancies.
Specifically, ring-shaped plaque geometries allow for targeted radiotherapy.
