A Case of Metastatic Malignant Melanoma / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

We present a case of metastatic mailgnant melanoma developed in the 40 year- old male patient. Six month prior to visit to our department of dermatology, the patient found an egg sized mass covered with normal skin on his right inguinal area, which showed typical findings of the metastatic malignant melanoma histopathologically. The primary malignant melanoma on the right shin was removed by wide surgical excision at 18 months prior to visit to our department of dermatology.
