Melanoma Insights for Professionals

Melanoma in children and adolescents


Listen Later

Melanoma is one of the most common human malignancies, however we often don't often think of it as a disease that occurs in children. Although exceedingly rare, clinicians do need to be aware of paediatric melanoma and have a high level of suspicion for these lesions as they are often diagnosed late. 

In this podcast, a Surgeon, Dermatologist and Medical Oncologist discuss how melanoma presents in children and adolescents, and how this differs from the adult setting. They also discuss how melanoma should be managed in these patients and discuss two patient case studies. 

This podcast is suitable for Surgeons, Dermatologists, Medical Oncologists, GPs and other healthcare professionals.
