Core Tip Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor affecting the eyes in adults. Nearly half of all primary uveal melanoma tumors metastasize; yet, there are currently no effective treatments for metastatic uveal melanoma. We reported a case of malignant melanoma. We found that the surgical approach to treatment of uveal melanoma with liver metastases improves prognosis.
