Metastatic melanoma on a patient's leg, with a scale bar to show the size. There is a large eroded plaque on the leg with areas of crust and scattered eroded dermal nodules. Melanomas are invasive cancers, and may spread to other parts of the body (metastasis). If this occurs, the prognosis is poor. If the cancer has not spread, surgical removal may effect a cure. Melanomas are the most dangerous form of skin cancer. | |
