Abstract The incidence of cutaneous melanoma (CM) is increasing among elderly patients, who often present with advanced disease, including cutaneous metastases. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is a local ablative treatment that enhances chemotherapy uptake via electric pulses. Management in patients aged ≥ 65 years is challenging because of frailty, comorbidities, and reduced tolerance to systemic therapy.
Background: Cutaneous recurrence from breast cancer can pose a clinical challenge. It may be the only disease site, or be part of disseminated disease, and often profoundly impacts quality of life. Electrochemotherapy is a palliative treatment for cutaneous metastases. Using electric pulses to locally permeabilize tumor cells, bleomycin cytotoxicity is significantly increased.
