Fourteen patients with metastatic malignant melanoma localized to a lower extremity were treated with combined radiotherapy and intra-arterial infusion therapy with dacarbazine. All lesions that were included in radiation fields regressed completely. Two patients relapsed within radiation fields and six relapsed elsewhere. One patient had a serious intimal lesion caused by the catheter.
