Jan 27th, 2021 - Lentiginous melanoma or lentigo maligna is a slow-growing type of melanoma frequently arising in sun-damaged skin and often first diagnosed in the elderly. Few studies report long-term follow-up. To define characteristics of lentiginous melanoma i...

Nov 24th, 2020 - The surgical treatment of lentigo maligna melanoma is associated with high rates of local recurrence. Handheld reflectance confocal microscopy (HH-RCM) allows for in vivo presurgical detection of subclinical lentigo maligna (melanoma) (LM/LMM). A ...

Oct 14th, 2020 - Lentigo maligna/lentigo maligna melanoma (LM/LMM) affects chronically sun-damaged skin of the head and neck with a slow radial growth phase. It is characterised by predominantly lentiginous proliferation of small, but atypical melanocytes with occ...

Jul 23rd, 2020 - The cancer/testis antigens (CTA) are a group of antigens expressed on germ cells of healthy testis and malignant tumors. We studied whether CTA are present on lentigo maligna (LM) and LM melanoma (LMM) samples. Immunohistochemical expression of a ...

Oct 22nd, 2019 - Lentigo maligna (LM) is a subtype of melanoma in situ that usually occurs in sun-damaged skin and is characterised by an atypical proliferation of melanocytes within the basal epidermis. If left untreated, LM can develop into invasive melanoma, te...

Jun 1st, 2015 - The four major types of melanoma, classified according to growth pattern, are: Superficial spreading melanoma. Constitutes approximately 70% of melanomas; usually flat but may become irregular and elevated in later stages; the lesions average 2 cm...

Feb 4th, 2015 - DISCUSSION Lentigo maligna (LM), also known as Hutchinson freckle, is a type of melanoma in situ that is typically seen on sun-exposed skin. It has indistinct margins with predominantly brown and black coloration.

Jan 13th, 2011 - ORLANDO – Standard surgical margins often are inadequate for lentigo maligna; instead, perimeter excision techniques or Mohs surgery is preferable because these approaches consistently provide high cure rates, according to Dr. Basil S.

MADRID — Mohs surgery for lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma yields a substantially lower recurrence rate and smaller surgical deficit than does conventional surgery, according to Dr. Leonard H.
