We present a woman who was referred to our plastic surgery unit with a suspected squamous cell carcinoma following a 3-year history of an enlarging mass on her thigh. Surprisingly, histopathological assessment confirmed the diagnosis of nodular malignant melanoma measuring 77×77×54 mm with a Breslow thickness of 52 mm, making it the largest recorded lower limb primary cutaneous malignant melanoma in the UK.
我们报告了一名女性患者,她因大腿部肿物增大3年,被转诊至我们的整形外科,怀疑患有鳞状细胞癌。令人惊讶的是,组织病理学评估确诊为结节性恶性黑色素瘤,大小为77×77×54mm,Breslow厚度为52mm,这使其成为英国有记录以来最大的下肢原发性皮肤恶性黑色素瘤。
