Genetic testing for melanoma predisposition: current challenges.

Cancer nursing - 1 Jan 2000

Gerstenblith Meg R, Goldstein Alisa M, Tucker Margaret A, Fraser Mary C

Abstract excerpt

A complex interaction of genetic, host, and environmental factors results in cutaneous malignant melanoma, the fifth most common cancer among men and the sixth among women in the United States. Mortality rates for cutaneous malignant melanoma depend on stage at diagnosis; thus, efforts are aimed at early detection and identification of risk factors for melanoma to distinguish those individuals requiring close...
