Additional malignancies and mortality in uveal melanoma: A 20-year follow-up of a Norwegian patient cohort.

Our results support that UM patients frequently have additional malignancies, both before and after UM. Low-UM mortality in patients with a primary malignancy after UM, might indicate less aggressive UM. The cumulative UM mortality flattens about 10 years after diagnosis and annual follow-up of patients for 10 years seems adequate.
