Lymphoid Neogenesis Identified in Melanoma Metastases
Primary melanomas do not host lymphoid follicles, but many contain high endothelial venules.
Diagnosis & Disease Information
Early Detection Strategies for Melanoma Compared
Skin self-examination and physician skin examination are complementary approaches for early melanoma detection.
Prior Basal Cell Carcinoma Is Main Predictor of Future BCC
Sunburn, baseline sun exposure, and sun protective measures do not independently predict risk.
Sirolimus Prevents Secondary SCC in Kidney Transplant Recipients
Kidney transplant recipients with SCC can prevent secondary skin cancers by switching from calcineurin inhibitors to sirolimus.
Review Assesses Melanoma Burden From Use of Sunbeds
Risk up for each added session of sunbed use per year and for those who first use before age 35 years.
Driver Mutations found in Melanoma
Several mutations found in melanoma act to drive tumorigenesis
BRAF/NRAS Prevalence Useful for Melanoma Management
The prevalence of BRAF/NRAS/p16CDKN2A mutations in paired tumor lesions from patients with melanoma is useful in the management of this disease.
ASCO, SSO, Issue Joint Clinical Practice Guideline for Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy for Melanoma
A new guideline on lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node biopsy in staging patients with newly diagnosed melanoma has been issued by ASCO and SSO.
Sentinel Node Biopsy Safe for Vulvar Squamous Cell Cancer
Sentinel lymph node biopsy may be used in place of inguinal femoral lymphadenectomy
Poor Tanning Ability, HPV Serostatus Associated with Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers
Ultraviolet radiation exposure may interact synergistically with cutaneous human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the development of BCC and SCC of the skin, but the effect of genus-specific HPV serostatus is unknown.
