Abstract | The management and outcomes for patients with metastatic melanoma have been revolutionized by immunotherapy. This case report highlights the role of surgery as an adjuvant to systemic therapies when there is oligoprogressive disease. We describe a 74-year-old man with metastatic melanoma who initially had a complete radiographic response after dual agent immunotherapy but subsequently developed a large metastasis in the retroperitoneum. After multidisciplinary discussion, he underwent margin negative resection that required en bloc segmental resection of the infra-renal inferior vena cava. To our knowledge, this is the first reported resection of a melanoma metastasis in this location. |
