DOI: 10.1001/jamadermatol.2017.2497

Abstract: Importance More than half of all new melanoma diagnoses present as clinically localized T1 melanoma, yet sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is controversial in this population given the overall low yield. Guidelines for SLNB have… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Histopathology"

DOI: 10.1111/his.14139

Abstract: Despite their low individual metastatic potential, thin melanomas (≤1 mm Breslow thickness) contribute significantly to melanoma mortality overall. Therefore, identification of prognostic biomarkers is particularly important in this subgroup of melanoma. Prompted by preclinical results,… read more here.
