Multidisciplinary management of in-transit melanoma
Manage episode 305672776 series 2943492
Managing in-transit melanoma can be challenging, and it presents and progresses as a heterogeneous disease. Multidisciplinary care is recommended for this complex disease to determine the optimal outcome for the patient.
In this engaging podcast, our multidisciplinary expert panel - featuring a Dermatologist, Surgeon and Medical Oncologist - discuss:
- the clinical presentation of in-transit melanoma
- importance of biopsy and imaging
- local therapy options including surgical resection, topical diphencyprone, radiotherapy, injectable agents and isolated limb infusion
- systemic therapy options in the adjuvant and unresectable settings.
In addition, the panel reviews a case study to put learnings into practice.
This podcast is suitable for Surgeons, Medical Oncologists, Dermatologists, Skin Cancer GPs, GPs, Nurses and other healthcare professionals.
