Differences and Similarities in Epidemiology and Risk Factors for Cutaneous and Uveal Melanoma

Medicina, 2023
Both cutaneous melanoma (CM) and uveal melanoma (UM) represent important causes of morbidity and mortality. In this review, we evaluate the available knowledge on the differences and similarities between cutaneous melanoma and uveal melanoma, focusing on

Ultrasound mapping of lymph node and subcutaneous metastases in patients with cutaneous melanoma: Results of a prospective multicenter study [PDF]

, 2006
Background: Ultrasound (sonography, B-mode sonography, ultrasonography) examination improves the sensitivity in more than 25% compared to the clinical palpation, especially after surgery on the regional lymph node area.

Spatially Resolved Transcriptomics Enables Dissection of Genetic Heterogeneity in Stage III Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma.

Cancer Research, 2018
Cutaneous malignant melanoma (melanoma) is characterized by a high mutational load, extensive intertumoral and intratumoral genetic heterogeneity, and complex tumor microenvironment (TME) interactions.

Late Metastases from a Thin Primary Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma

Revista da Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia, 2020
Cutaneous malignant melanoma is the third most common type of skin cancer, and its incidence has been rising. Its mortality rate is considerable, due to an aggressive phenotype and great ability of dissemination, mainly in the first years of follow- -up.

Selective induction of cell death in melanoma cell lines through targeting of Mcl-1 and A1. [PDF]

, 2012
Melanoma is an often fatal form of skin cancer which is remarkably resistant against radio- and chemotherapy. Even new strategies that target RAS/RAF signaling and display unprecedented efficacy are characterized by resistance mechanisms.

Risk of skin cancer in patients with vitiligo in Denmark: A nationwide cohort studyCapsule Summary

JAAD International, 2020
Background: Vitiligo is a depigmentation disorder associated with genetic loss of melanocytes and decreased melanin synthesis. The current literature is conflicting in regard to vitiligo patients' risk of cutaneous malignant melanoma and keratinocyte ...

An Epidemiological Review of Diet and Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma

Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention, 2018
Incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma has continued to rise despite public efforts to promote sun protection behaviors among populations at risk. However, dietary factors may also affect the development of melanoma.

The Outcome of Patients with Melanoma Is Not Associated with the Time Point of Lymphatic Mapping with Respect to Excisional Biopsy of the Primary Tumor [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become the standard care for melanoma and is an important diagnostic procedure. It has been doubted whether lymphoscintigraphy detects the correct sentinel lymph node (SLN) when excision of the tumor and ...
