Abstract

Ocular tumours may arise from various tissues and therefore present as a heterogeneous group of diseases with unspecific symptoms. Some of the tumours carry a high mortality with a life expectancy less than 50% after ten years. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for a good outcome, and centralization has led to a decreased morbidity and increased survival in Denmark. Tumour-specific somatic mutations can be used for personalized follow-up programmes and may lead to new treatment modalities, as argued in this review.
