Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma is becoming increasingly common among people with fair skins, and this has been blamed on exposure to ultraviolet radiation from sunbathing, the use of sun beds, and holidays abroad. The key to controlling the epidemic of melanoma is prevention, but also important are the organisation of the skin cancer service, surgical advances, and the development of neoadjuvant treatments. Because there are many of these tumours in the head and neck region, head and neck surgeons are increasingly involved in the management of such patients. We review the current philosophy in the management of melanoma.
