Early identification of high-risk patients for the development of melanoma metastases is the main strategy to reduce mortality. oBjective: To assess the influence of eight epidemiological and histopathologic features on the development of metastases in patients diagnosed with primary cutan...
متن کاملCutaneous melanoma: prognostic factors.
BACKGROUND Recent data have changed our views of prognostic factors in cutaneous melanoma. While some newer methods have yielded better prognostic information, some insights have evolved as a result of large-scale population-based analyses.

Tumor thickness has historically been the single most important factor in risk assessment for stage I and II melanoma patients. However, it is possible to more accurately determine a patient's prognosis by also using other known prognostic indicators, such as ulceration, vascular invasion, and angiogenesis. A probabilistic approach to risk assessment has implications for the appropriate selecti...
متن کاملRole of pathologic prognostic factors in breast cancer patients with isolated bone metastasis and relationship between SUVmax and prognostic factors
Introduction: 18F-FDG PET/CT provides very effective results in detecting metastases of breast cancer. In our study, we investigated the relationship between maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and prognostic pathologic factors in breast cancer cases with isolated bone metastasis and whether there was any difference in terms of prognostic pathologic factors betwee...
متن کامل[Risk factors for in-transit metastasis in patients with cutaneous melanoma].
BACKGROUND In-transit metastases have been associated with the presence of various negative prognostic factors in patients with cutaneous melanoma. It has recently been suggested that sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) may lead to an increase in the incidence of this particular type of metastasis. In this study, we analyzed risk factors for the appearance of in-transit metastasis and its potenti...
