Unusual metastases from a malignant melanoma. A case report.
1991
: An unusual case of malignant melanoma metastatic to the lung and to the ovaries occurred 9 and 11 years, respectively, after the initial, extragenital diagnosis. The primary lesion invaded to Clark's level IV with a thickness of greater than 4 mm, normally grave prognostic indicators. A metastatic lung nodule seen radiographically remained unchanged for two years before discovery of the intraperitoneal disease. The case illustrates the clinical variability and unpredictable biologic behavior of malignant melanoma.
