Malignant melanomahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melanoma
Malignant melanoma ndi mtundu wa khansa yapakhungu yomwe imayamba kuchokera ku maselo opanga pigment otchedwa melanocytes. Kwa amayi, amapezeka kwambiri pamiyendo, pamene mwa amuna, amapezeka kwambiri kumbuyo. Pafupifupi 25% ya melanoma imayamba kuchokera ku nevus. Kusintha kwa nevi komwe kungasonyeze khansa ya khansa kumaphatikizapo kuwonjezeka kwa kukula, m'mphepete mwachilendo, kusintha kwa mtundu, kapena zilonda.

Choyambitsa chachikulu cha melanoma ndi kuwonetseredwa kwa kuwala kwa ultraviolet kwa omwe ali ndi khungu lochepa la pigment melanin (anthu oyera). Kuwala kwa UV kumatha kukhala kochokera kudzuwa kapena zida zowotcha. Anthu omwe ali ndi khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya khansa ya m'mabanja awo, komanso kuchepa kwa chitetezo cha mthupi mwawo ali pachiopsezo chachikulu cha khansa ya melanoma.

Kugwiritsa ntchito mafuta oteteza ku dzuwa komanso kupewa kuwala kwa UV kungalepheretse melanoma. Chithandizo chimachotsedwa ndi opaleshoni. Kwa omwe ali ndi khansa yokulirapo pang'ono, ma lymph nodes oyandikana nawo amatha kuyesedwa kuti afalikire (metastasis). Anthu ambiri amachiritsidwa ngati metastasis sichinachitike. Kwa iwo omwe melanoma yafalikira, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, radiation therapy, kapena chemotherapy amatha kupulumuka. Ndi chithandizo, zaka zisanu zopulumuka ku United States ndi 99% mwa omwe ali ndi matenda am'deralo, 65% pamene matendawa afalikira ku ma lymph nodes, ndi 25% mwa omwe akufalikira kutali.

Khansara yapakhungu ndi khansa yapakhungu yowopsa kwambiri. Australia ndi New Zealand ali ndi chiwerengero chapamwamba cha melanoma padziko lonse lapansi. Matenda a melanoma amapezekanso ku Northern Europe ndi North America. Melanoma imapezeka mocheperapo ku Asia, Africa, ndi Latin America. Ku United States, melanoma imapezeka pafupifupi nthawi 1.6 mwa amuna kuposa akazi.

Zizindikiro ndi zizindikiro
Zizindikiro zoyambirira za melanoma ndi kusintha kwa mawonekedwe kapena mtundu wa nevus yomwe ilipo. Pankhani ya nodular melanoma, ndikuwoneka kwa chotupa chatsopano pakhungu. Pambuyo pa khansa ya khansa ya m'mawere, nevi imatha kuyabwa, zilonda zam'mimba, kapena kutuluka magazi.

Metastasis oyambirira khansa ya pakhungu ndi zotheka, koma ndi osowa; ochepera gawo limodzi mwa magawo asanu a melanomas omwe amapezeka msanga amakhala metastatic. Ma metastases muubongo amapezeka mwa odwala omwe ali ndi melanoma. Metastatic melanoma imathanso kufalikira ku chiwindi, mafupa, pamimba, kapena ma lymph nodes akutali.

Kuyang'ana dera lomwe likufunsidwa ndi njira yodziwika kwambiri yokayikira melanoma. Ma Nevus omwe sakhala amtundu kapena mawonekedwe osakhazikika nthawi zambiri amatengedwa ngati ofuna kudwala khansa yapakhungu.
Madokotala nthawi zambiri amawunika ma moles onse, kuphatikiza omwe ali osakwana 6 mm m'mimba mwake. Akagwiritsidwa ntchito ndi akatswiri ophunzitsidwa bwino, dermoscopy imathandiza kwambiri kuzindikira zilonda zopweteka kusiyana ndi kugwiritsa ntchito diso lokha. Kuzindikira ndi biopsy ya chotupa chilichonse chapakhungu chomwe chili ndi zizindikiro zokhala ndi khansa.

Melanoma ndi mtundu wa chotupa chomwe chimapanga pamene ma melanocyte amakhala oopsa. Ma melanocyte amachokera ku neural crest. Izi zikutanthauza kuti melanomas imatha kukula osati pakhungu komanso m'malo ena omwe ma cell a neural crest amayenda, monga thirakiti la m'mimba ndi ubongo. Odwala omwe ali ndi gawo 0 la melanoma amakhala ndi moyo zaka zisanu ndi 97%, pomwe omwe ali ndi matenda a stage IV amakhala ndi pafupifupi 10 peresenti yokha.
A melanoma is a tumor produced by the malignant transformation of melanocytes. Melanocytes are derived from the neural crest; consequently, melanomas, although they usually occur on the skin, can arise in other locations where neural crest cells migrate, such as the gastrointestinal tract and brain. The five-year relative survival rate for patients with stage 0 melanoma is 97%, compared with about 10% for those with stage IV disease.

Melanoma is one of the most immunologic malignancies based on its higher prevalence in immune-compromised patients, the evidence of brisk lymphocytic infiltrates in both primary tumors and metastases, the documented recognition of melanoma antigens by tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes and, most important, evidence that melanoma responds to immunotherapy. The use of immunotherapy in the treatment of metastatic melanoma is a relatively late discovery for this malignancy. Recent studies have shown a significantly higher success rate with combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or targeted molecular therapy. Immunotherapy is associated to a panel of dysimmune toxicities called immune-related adverse events that can affect one or more organs and may limit its use. Future directions in the treatment of metastatic melanoma include immunotherapy with anti-PD1 antibodies or targeted therapy with BRAF and MEK inhibitors.
