Irrigation with mercury chloride and sodium hypochlorite to prevent local recurrence after excision of conjunctival melanoma. An experimental study.
Two chemical agents, sodium hypochlorite 0.5% (Dakin's solution) and mercury chloride 0.1%, capable of killing seeded tumour cells, were used for washing the cornea and conjunctiva of rabbits. Both agents produced considerable superficial lesions in the cornea and conjunctiva after irrigation for 3 and 5 min, but these were restored to normal after 2 weeks.

Local metastasis in conjunctival melanoma.
After excision of conjunctival melanomas the rate of recidivation is high. This may partly be due to local seeding of tumour cells in the excision wound, as we observed in one patient. We now use a sodiumhypochlorite solution (Dakin's solution) as tumour cell killing agent. Instead of diagnostic biopsy exfoliative cytology is performed; at surgery the tumour is not touched except for cauterisation with formaldehyde.
