Malignant Melanoma Current Concepts

Περιγραφή:

Malignant melanoma (see the image above) is a neoplasm of melanocytes or a neoplasm of the cells that develop from melanocytes. Although it was once considered uncommon, the annual incidence has increased dramatically over the past few decades. Surgery is the definitive treatment for early-stage melanoma, with medical management generally reserved for adjuvant treatment of advanced melanoma.
