Track: Melanoma

Melanoma remains a significant challenge in dermatology and oncology due to its potential for rapid progression and metastasis. Early and accurate diagnosis, combined with an understanding of the unique characteristics of different melanoma subtypes, is essential for effective management. The TNM classification system plays a critical role in staging and guiding treatment decisions, while surgical excision remains a cornerstone of curative therapy. This Melanoma session will offer an in-depth exploration of these topics, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in the management of melanoma.

Cutaneous Melanoma:

Cutaneous melanoma, the most common form of melanoma, primarily affects the skin. This discussion will focus on risk factors, early detection strategies, and the latest advances in treatment, highlighting the importance of early intervention to improve patient outcomes.

Ocular Melanoma:

Ocular melanoma, which affects the eye, is a rare but serious form of melanoma. The session will explore the clinical presentation, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options for ocular melanoma, emphasizing the importance of early detection to preserve vision and improve prognosis.

Mucosal Melanoma:

Mucosal melanoma occurs on mucous membranes lining various body parts, such as the mouth, nasal passages, and genitals. This portion will address the unique challenges in diagnosing and treating mucosal melanoma, including its tendency for late presentation and aggressive behavior.

TNM (Tumor, Node, Metastasis) System:

The TNM system is a globally recognized method for staging melanoma, guiding treatment decisions, and predicting outcomes. This discussion will cover the application of the TNM system in clinical practice, focusing on its role in assessing tumor size, lymph node involvement, and metastasis.

Surgical Excision:

Surgical excision is the primary treatment for localized melanoma, involving the removal of the tumor with a margin of healthy tissue. This segment will discuss the principles of surgical excision, including margin assessment, the role of sentinel lymph node biopsy, and post-operative care to reduce the risk of recurrence.
