Instead of using the word atypical, which isn’t a word that everybody uses in my world why don’t you just call it not normal. What is so hard about saying not normal. I mean the medical community is already complicating as it is why do y’all have to use terms that nobody understands?

Maybe explain NEOPLASM OF UNCERTAIN BEHAVIOR VS. DYSPLASTIC NEVUS in a way we can understand

Diagnosis: MALIGNANT MELANOMA, INVASIVE TO A BRESLOW DEPTH OF 0.5 MM. Sections show a malignant proliferation of melanocytes with confluent juntional growth and dermal cytologic atypia.Precursor nevus: intradermal nevus is present this was cut out on 8/16/2022 the derm said I had stage 1

Thanks ,l would ask about the best ct during follow up after finishing treatment ..stage 3 ..thanks advance

In a full skin exam does the scribe need to see EVERYTHING or are there parts where the scribe looks away?

Where is the ask an expert line?

Not a single picture... this video is misleading.

Good video. Very helpful. Thanks

So I just had one removed. But they want to go in and get more out because it could have a “root”. Does that mean that it could be at a different stage?

Braf isnt in normal cells??

Is stage 3 melanoma a death sentence?? My mother got diagnosed with it

Clearest explanation I’ve heard so far! Concise and to the point. Excellent!

Thank you

I found a spot on my head about 2” above my ear. Is the biopsy painful?

Thank you 18lymph nodes removed lumps have appeared have removed lumps 7times.had a very severe reation to immunotherapy.

what are the reasons of bRAF mutation?

I am BRAF negative. I have a malignant melanoma 1.4 depth...what does this mean? I don't have the BRAF mutation?

I just had a atypical mole removed from my shoulder. First they did the punch biopsy and 3 stitches. Then went in to get those stitches removed. Dr read me the results of that pathology report and they did an excision which resulted in 24 stitches total 12 or so under the skin and then 12 on top of my shoulder. I get the stitches out next Monday and it is healing nicely. I will say this. Please know when you go in to get the biopsy and or excision. They numb you up with lidocane and some other stuff. they will use a cauterization tool to stop any bleeding. The smell is not a pleasant one and also what they dont tell you is after the fact your pain meds wear off. You are gonna hurt. Take a tylenol before that wears off. Ice will also help with inflammation as the site will swell naturally and bruising will be present. I hope that is all for me I try to keep covered and or wear sunscreen when I am outside. This mole was probably from before I was so conscious about wearing sunscreen. Doc told me I will have checks in 3 mos then in 6 then a year.

litterly the best video ever explaining, thank you so much

My mom just got diagnosed with melanoma today. They just did a biopsy last week. I guess now we have to see the surgeon. I am absolutely terrified. My mom is my best friend and the whole world. I never knew this would happen. I hope the surgeon says everything is going to be okay I am so scared

Thank you ❤

I like the way you explain things in layman's terms. A lot of the videos on youtube are long and boring and just about put you to sleep! Thanks for the information needed :)

Thank you for making this video! Its great to learn more about the advancements in personalized cancer vaccines. I'm surprised no mention of Gritstone Bio with their landmark reading out this year. Care to opine on their Granite program and /heterologous prime/boost approach?

Great information! ❤

I did a treatment plan of Interferon plus for Hepatitis C some years ago now. It was a needle in the belly once a week and a handful of tablets daily, it nearly killed me by such anemic blood and depression that I only got through 6 months of the twelve. My Hepatitis was gone for 9 months but came back as though untouched. Three years later I tried the new treatment of just tablets for 12 weeks and to this day I am Hep C free. Thank you to all those doctors and scientist working on these treatments to cure our ails.

I appreciate the effort to make the video, but it explains very little. However, it did lead me to be able to ask more questions, so thank you, as that is the most important part of education.

Do dysplastic nevus change in color/shape over time? Like a few month period?

There not warts

I was diagnosed may of this year. Gnarly scar on my neck

My grandmother just had a biopsy on her heel showing she has melanoma. The black spot is about the size of a nickel with further discoloration going towards the bottom of the heel. She was told she will be recieving surgery first to remove the melanoma and then will receive a diagnosis on the stage. Is this normal?

'promosm' 😉

EXCELLENT!

Is it normal to get many stage 0.? I have had 5 removed and wonder why I keep getting them.

Thank you for your explanation

EXCELLENT! Thanks for presenting. I'm a stage 2B and this was very interesting for me.

I had one on my chest for years. One day my wife said it's getting bigger and a bit irregular. I went to the dermatologist who biopsied it. I got a call a week later. "It's a severely dysplastic Nevis. It's not cancerous, but you need to have it removed. NOW" I'll never forget the "NOW" part. I now have a 2" scar under my left nipple. Inside of 3 months, I had 3 tumors removed. All of different typed and locations. I have a fourth to be removed soon. I guess I'm prone (FAP) as I had 14" of my colon removed due to polyps also.

If the combined bractovi and mektovi cause terrible side effects, is there another option for melanoma mastisis tumor in lymph node?

Plz . Which is the best ? Ct or pet scan after treatment ?

I've had 3 surgeries. I will send this video to family members who are asking me questions about my Melanoma in situ. Thanks!

As the wife of a stage 4 melanoma patient this was very good info.

Hi , I m a 69 retired pharmacist .Through m'y wife's endometrial cancer since 2016 , with almost thé treaments and many récurrences , I found a New approach by using LA lidocaine. Due to its lipophilic structure, this molecule Can easily pénétrante membrane cell and mitochondrial membrane to dysrupt main biochemical processes like Krebs'cycle and respiratory chain enzymes, so to stop thé production of ATP the power molécule that cells need for theirs multiplication. So hthe Idea is to use lidocaine by multiple routes to stop the multiplication of thé cancerous cells ( of any kind but not too late ) and metastasis. Concerning melanoma , there would be of great benefits , with properly using local massages with lidocaine or patches to use thé lymphatic système . The earlier , the best .

Just had one removed in-between my toes. A spot that people normally dont look at. I know i had it for a long time. But when i was scratching my toe i looked at it and it was a little darker since the last time i looked. Thank God i got it looked at it and removed. I just had a bad feeling about it.

Thank you for this. My husband had a spot removed on his forehead at the derm office. They tested it, and it was melanoma stage 0. What I don’t understand is that it took him so long to get into a surgeon that it’ll be 4 months from initial removal in the derm office to surgical removal. Is this typically too long? And does it spread in this short time?
