    Extractions: Cancer Registries and Surveillance ... Skin Cancer On this page May is National Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month. The month is dedicated to increasing public awareness of the importance of skin cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment, including basal cell, squamous cell, and melanoma. The American Cancer Society estimates that during 2005, about 1 million new cases of basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma and about 59,580 new cases of malignant melanoma will be diagnosed. It is also expected that skin cancer will claim the lives of approximately 10,590 Americans. Although death rates from basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas are low, these cancers can cause considerable damage and disfigurement if they are untreated. However, when detected early, approximately 95% of these carcinomas can be cured. Exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays appears to be the most important environmental factor involved in the development of skin cancer. When used consistently, sun-protective practices can prevent skin cancer. UV rays from artificial sources of light, such as tanning beds and sunlamps, are as dangerous as those from the sun and should also be avoided. Although both tanning and burning can increase a person's risk for skin cancer, most Americans do not consistently protect themselves from UV rays. A survey sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that approximately 43% of white children under age 12 had at least one sunburn during the past year.

    Extractions: Breast Cancer Help Links Email Mama What is Melanoma? Melanoma is a cancerous (malignant) tumor that begins in the melanocytes. Melanocytes are the cells that produce the skin coloring or protective pigment called melanin. Melanin helps protect the deeper layers of the skin from the harmful effects of sun rays. Melanoma cells still produce melanin, but the cells grow uncontrollably. This is why melanoma cancers have mixed shades of tan, brown and black skin cells. Melanoma is usually curable in its early stages. However, in later stages, melanoma spreads to other parts of the body and the chances for a cure is less. Malignant melanoma is a rare type of cancer. Melanoma can affect most parts of the body. Melanoma may begin in or near a mole or other dark spot in the skin. It is important to be familiar with your skin and the pattern or moles, freckles and "beauty marks". Pay close attention if the size of your moles, freckles or beauty marks change in color or shape. The most common site in women is on the legs. In men, the most common place is the back. Melanoma is most common in women between the ages of 40 and 60. It is the most deadliest form of skin cancer.

    Extractions: Introduction Melanoma * is the most serious type of cancer of the skin. Each year in the United States, more than 53,600 people learn they have melanoma. In some parts of the world, especially among Western countries, melanoma is becoming more common every year. In the United States, for example, the percentage of people who develop melanoma has more than doubled in the past 30 years. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has written this booklet (NIH Publication No. 02-1563) to help people with melanoma and their families and friends better understand this disease. We hope others will read it as well to learn more about melanoma. This booklet discusses risks and prevention, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and followup care. It also has information about resources and sources of support to help patients cope with melanoma. This booklet is about melanoma of the skin. Melanomas arising in areas other than the skin (such as intraocular melanoma, which is melanoma arising in the eye) are not discussed here. Also, two more common and less serious types of skin cancer (squamous cell and basal cell cancer) are discussed in another NCI booklet

    Extractions: you don't have to 'go home and die' If you have recently been diagnosed with ocular/uveal melanoma and are considering enucleation, please go to this link. T his page is dedicated to my beloved father, John Brockman, who died June 29, 2000. Had we known the information on this page, he might be alive today. Instead, we were advised by our oncologists that nothing could be done. This was the beginning of our search, within the medical community, for a cutting-edge treatment for this rare form of metastatic melanoma. Very few doctors are aware of the extraordinarily aggressive nature of this tumor, and even fewer are aware of recent developments which can at least significantly prolong life, if not cure the cancer. Ocular (uveal) melanoma patients who have had liver metastases and have undergone treatment have generously provided their stories here There is no time to lose. W hen you find an appropriate treatment, you must convince your doctors to take action immediately. At each stage, as we discovered the next possible treatment, the tumor had already grown too large for it. My dad, who was otherwise in perfect health, was dead just eight weeks after diagnosis.
