| Core Tip |
Isolated limb infusion (ILI) is a regional treatment of limb melanoma, allowing selective delivery of toxic agents to the arm or leg with the tumor, with limited leakage. Hemofiltration can reduce the high toxic peaks of drug in the blood, hence, limiting post-procedural side effects. In this paper we report results of an Italian Registry applying the ILI technique with or without Hemofiltration to recurrent non-resectable limb melanoma. The overall response rate was 66%. Low grade toxicity was observed in 90% of patients. ILI with/without hemofiltration is an efficacious and safe treatment for recurrent non-resectable limb melanoma. |
