Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Recent therapeutic advances in metastatic melanoma have led to improved overall survival (OS) rates, with consequently an increased incidence of brain metastases (BM). The role of BM resection in the era of targeted and immunotherapy should be reassessed. In the current study we analysed the role of residual intracranial tumour load in a cohort of melanoma BM patients.
