Treatment of Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1980
Thirty‐eight cases of lentigo maligna and 22 cases of lentigo maligna melanoma, were reviewed in order to compare cure rates of various methods of treatment. Surgical excision resulted in the best cure rate (91%); destructive modalities were less successful (45%). All lesions treated with 5% 5‐fluorouracil recurred.

Treatment of Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1979
The results of treatment of 42 cases of lentigo maligna and 16 of lentigo maligna melanoma at the New York University Medical Center were reviewed. The recurrence rate after surgical excision of 22 lesions of lentigo maligna was 9% (2/22), but after treatment of 20 such lesions with destructive techniques (X rays, curettageelectrodesiccation ...

Surgical treatment of lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 1999
Lentigo maligna (LM) is well known as an irregularly pigmented macular lesion usually presenting on the sun‐damaged head and neck of older patients. Lentigo maligna (LM) has the potential to develop into invasive melanoma (LMM). A method of surgical excision for the treatment of LM and LMM using paraffin sections with tissue mapping to ensure clear ...

Lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1995
Lentigo maligna (LM) is a pigmented lesion that occurs on the sun-exposed skin, particularly the head and neck areas, of an older patient. The lesion increases in size and at some point, often many years after its onset, may become lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM). For this reason, most authors consider LM a form of melanoma in situ.

Lentigo Maligna/Lentigo Maligna Melanoma: Current State of Diagnosis and Treatment

Dermatologic Surgery, 2006
Lentigo maligna (LM) is a subtype of melanoma in situ that typically develops on sun-damaged skin. Presentation may be quite subtle and delayed diagnosis is common. Clinical margins are often ill defined. Histologic evaluation can be difficult due to the widespread atypical melanocytes that are present in the background of long-standing sun damage ...

Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1978
Lentigo maligna melanoma is a malignant melanoma with a recognizable clinical pattern. It is a slow‐growing, pigmented tumor evolving from a premalignant lesion on the exposed cutaneous surface of an elderly patient. Histologically, it is marked by pleomorphism of melanocytes with evidence of invasion.A case is presented demonstrating the features of ...

Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma in Young Adults

Dermatologic Surgery, 2004
We observed two young women with skin types II to III according to Fitzpatrick's classification who developed pigmented macules in the face that were histologically diagnosed as lentigo maligna melanomas.The objective of this study was to examine lentigo maligna melanoma in young adults.According to private photographs of one of those patients a ...

Estimated risk of progression of lentigo maligna to lentigo maligna melanoma

Melanoma Research, 2020
Little is known about the risk of progression of lentigo maligna to lentigo maligna melanoma. We determine the annual risk of progression of lentigo maligna to lentigo maligna melanoma by analysing a prospective population-based survey of recently diagnosed anterior (visible in a mirror) head and neck lentigo malignas and lentigo maligna melanomas. Six

Lentigo Maligna, Lentigo Maligna Melanoma In Situ and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

2012
The spectrum of severely atypical melanocytic proliferations in sun-damaged skin of the elderly ranges from a proliferation of scattered individual cells along the dermal epidermal junction (lentigo maligna), to a dense proliferation of tumor cells that replaces the epidermis with nesting, confluence and pagetoid spread (lentigo maligna melanoma in ...

The risk of progression of lentigo maligna to lentigo maligna melanoma

British Journal of Dermatology, 1987
An analysis is presented which estimates the risk of progression of lentigo maligna (LM) to lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) in U.S. whites using three data sources: the Health and Nutrition Examination Survey I for estimation of the age-specific prevalence of LM; the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program for estimation of the age-specific ...
