This chapter discusses the value of FDG-PET and combined FDG-PET/CT in staging and follow-up of melanoma patients. For melanoma patients, the presence or absence of regional lymph node metastases is one of the most important prognostic factors; the recent development of sentinel lymph node biopsy offers a highly sensitive staging method.

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2015
Melanoma is a common cancer in the Western world with an increasing incidence. Sun exposure is still considered to be the major risk factor for melanoma. The prognosis of patients with malignant (advanced-stage) melanoma differs widely between countries, but public campaigns advocating early detection have led to significant reductions in mortality ...

The Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, 2005
The surgical management of melanoma continues to evolve. A large body of information serves as a foundation for the oncologic principles, surgical excisions, and reconstructive methodologies that are currently in use. This article serves as a guide for the physician considering surgical management of the melanoma patient.

Dermatologic Clinics, 2016
Melanomas are a wide range of tumors that differ in their epidemiology, morphology, genetic profile, and biological behavior. They can be grouped as superficial spreading melanoma, lentigo maligna, and nodular melanoma. Reflectance confocal microscopy is useful for the evaluation of skin lesions that are dermoscopically doubtful by increasing ...

Cutaneous melanoma causes 55 500 deaths annually. The incidence and mortality rates of the disease differ widely across the globe depending on access to early detection and primary care. Once melanoma has spread, this type of cancer rapidly becomes life-threatening.

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2012
Ipilimumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 receptor. Blocking cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 signaling has been shown to enhance T-cell activation and to amplify T-cell-mediated immunity. Ipilimumab, either as a single agent or in combination with gp100 vaccination, significantly prolonged ...

Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a variant of spindle cell melanoma characterized by the presence of abundant fibrous matrix. It is typically found in the head and neck region on chronically sun-damaged skin of older individuals. Early detection is uncommon, because its clinical features are not distinctive. DM is prone to misdiagnosis not only clinically
