1 Melanoma Stats ,380 people in the US will get melanoma this year (up from 68,720 in 2013) About 10,130 deaths (up from 8,650 in 2013) Rates higher in males and elderly, but occurs at all ages; one of the most common cancers in persons under 30 Incidence of Melanoma Melanoma in Central Oregon: Incidence, Prevention, Staging and Treatment John T. Vetto MD, FACS Disclosures: Genentech (Spouse Salary) Castle Biosciences (Advisory Board) Division of Surgical Oncology Disclaimer: I Yam What I Yam What I am not: Dermatologist Epidemiologist Medical or Radiation Oncologist What I am: A melanoma surgical oncologist cares deeply about impacting the damage done by melanoma on individuals and society knows enough about the other specialties to be dangerous (and run a multi disciplinary program)

2 Melanoma: Epidemic Proportions Causes? Environmental: UV exposure? Increasing?global warming?thinning ozone layer Hereditary *Cultural* skin sense The Electromagnetic Spectrum Shorter Wavelengths = Higher Energy UVA: once thought to have a minor role in melanoma, but known to be a major contributor to skin damage and cancer. UVA penetrates deeper into the skin and has more energy than UVB UV Radiation is a Class I Carcinogen (WHO) Lifetime Risk of Developing Cutaneous Melanoma in the US Year Lifetime Risk : : : : : : :53 Arch Dermatol. 2010;146:318 Questions Frequently Asked by Dermatologists and PCPs About Melanoma Why are we seeing so much? What type of biopsy is best? How much more excision should be done? Is it really melanoma? How to stage? Should any tests be ordered? Which patients should be referred for SLNBx? What if the nodes feel enlarged or pt gives history of enlarged nodes? How to treat? How to follow up?

6 Melanoma: The Patriotic Cancer Red=inflammation Blue=active tumor White=regression What Type of Initial Biopsy is Best? Boards answer : Excisional biopsy with narrow margins Reality: Partial biopsies frequently used by Derm older age provider preferences lesion factors large lesions excision anatomically impractical Low clinical suspicion C.K. Bichakjian. J Am Acad Dermatol. 2011; 65: Questions Frequently Asked by Dermatologists and PCPs About Melanoma Why are we seeing so much? What type of biopsy is best? How much more excision should be done? Is it really melanoma? How to stage? Should any tests be ordered? Which patients should be referred for SLNBx? What if the nodes feel enlarged or pt gives history of enlarged nodes? How to treat? How to follow up? The ABCDEs of Melanoma Diagnosis Asymmetry One half of the lesion is shaped One half of the lesion is shaped differently than the other Border The border of the lesion is irregular, blurred, or ragged Color Inconsistent pigmentation, with Inconsistent pigmentation, with varying shades of brown and black Evolution History of change in the lesion Diameter >6 mm, or a progressive change in size.

How to stage? Should any tests be ordered? Which patients should be referred for SLNBx? What if the nodes feel enlarged or pt gives history of enlarged nodes? How to treat? How to follow up? Biopsy Type Shave Higher incidence of + deep and peripheral margins vs. excisional Consider excisional bx if shave= 0.75mm< melanoma present at base Punch Higher incidence of + peripheral margins vs. excisional Higher mean area of subsequent wide excision Excisional must orient longitudinally No impact on SLN accuracy, tumor recurrence, or survival Mills JK. Am J Surg 2013 Implications for SLNBx Partial bx techniques may underestimate depth 13% thin melanomas ( 1.0mm) upstaged Consider excisional biopsy prior to Rx planning for T1a lesions that do not meet SLNBx criteria Mills J.
