Abstract
Thirteen patients with malignant melanoma, treated by excision of the primary, were injected with radioactive gold particles into the lymphatics of the region. The aim of the endolymphatic injection was to treat possible metastases in the draining lymph vessels and in the regional nodes. A review of these patients followed up to 5 years after treatment is encouraging and warrants further trial of endolymphatic therapy.
