ABSTRACT
New translational research has paved the way for more optimistic management of melanoma. Medications targeting oncogenic signaling cascades and immune regulatory molecules have significantly improved overall survival for patients with metastatic melanoma. While isolated, operable orbital melanoma may still benefit from surgery, there potentially is an opportunity to provide patients with neoadjuvant systemic therapy with sustainable long-term effects. Additionally, patients with non-resectable orbital melanoma can benefit from systemic treatment.
