Note d'application: Neoplasia maligna derivada de células capaces de producir melanina, que puede aparecer en la piel de cualquier parte del cuerpo, en el ojo y rara vez en las mucosas de los genitales, el ano, la cavidad bucal y otras zonas. Casi todos los casos de esta neoplasia se producen en adultos y pueden originarse de novo o a partir de un nevo pigmentado o lentigo maligno. Los melanomas dan a menudo metástasis extendidas que frecuentemente afectan a los ganglios linfáticos regionales, hígado, pulmones y cerebro.

Note d'application: A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world. (Stedman, 25th ed; from Rook et al., Textbook of Dermatology, 4th ed, p2445)
