title: [The hierarchization of the prognostic factors in uveal malignant melanoma].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To retrospectively study the prognostical factors, that influence disease development as well as survival in patients suffering of uveal malignant melanoma.
  
  
  METHODS
  100 cases of uveal malignant melanoma were thoroughly reviewed clinically and histopathologically. The analysis of the results were carried out by means of the statistically correlated methods.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Factors having a negative prognostical influence upon the patient's survival were classified following their importance, the most significant of them being the histopathologically necrotic cellular type.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Classifying the prognostically negative factors in patients with uveal malignant melanoma enabled to choose the most important of them in order to draw up a clinical record card suitable for ensuring a patient, whose eye had been enucleated due to an uveal malignant melanoma.
