Abstract
Changes in the 2010 American Joint Commission on Cancer melanoma staging guidelines include the evaluation of primary tumor mitotic index (mitogenicity) and the recognized prognostic significance of a single melanoma cell in a sentinel lymph node. These revised criteria have important practice implications for dermatopathologists as well as for dermatologists, oncologists and surgeons who treat patients with cutaneous melanoma.Entities:
