Location of Lower Limb Cutaneous Melanomas as a Prognostic Factor.

• Conditions: Cutaneous Melanoma; Anatomical Pathological Condition
• Interventions: Other: Observational

• Registration Number: NCT04625491
• Lead Sponsor: Hospital Universitario Virgen de la Arrixaca

Brief Summary

Observational study to know the relevance of specific anatomical location of cutaneous melanoma on lower limbs.

Detailed Description

Ambispective (retrospective and prospective) observational register of patients with cutaneous melanoma on lower limbs are grouped in 1) proximal (thigh), 2) medium (leg), and 3) distal (ankle and foot) location. Analysis of melanoma-specific overall and disease-free survival will be made, as well as multivariant analysis for prognostic variables including anatomical location.
