Abstract :
[en] Treating a patient with cutaneous malignant melanoma relies on the recognition of a clever stratification of the distinct stages of the disease. The histoprognostic criteria were recently revisited. In addition, translational research fueled the development of new treatments with at last increased efficacy in the metastatic stage. Such therapeutic advance improves the median overall survival for a few months. Some combined treatments could possibly boost the beneficial effects.
