10 ADULTS : Case 1 DIAGNOSIS : MELTUMP Melanocytic TUmor of Uncertain Malignant Potential This group is used to define a type of tumor in adults with severe atypia or/and disorganization without clear features of melanoma Others features as necrosis and vascular invasion are rare This term must be used for high grade lesion with Vertical Growth Phase The main criteria to distinguish MM from MELTUMP is mitosis in deep in melanoma Not for dysplastic nevus with mild atypia (clinical context) - Dr. Guy Perrot Diagnostic and pitfalls in melanoma Dr. Guy Perrot 10

11 ADULTS : MELTUP Recommendations Give the same schema report as a melanoma report: Breslow Clark margins and so Don't use in your report the term of malignant melanoma complete excision with margins as melanoma, same follow up Sentinel lymph node controversies and no performs today Diagnostic and pitfalls in melanoma Dr. Guy Perrot 11
