What is the extreme implication of a cancerous mole? can someone give me medical infos?

Answer 1

avie-  The "extreme implication of a cancerous mole" is death if the mole is a malignant melanoma and it is not surgically removed completely before it spreads elsewhere in the body.  

Melanoma begins on the surface of the skin where it is easy to see and treat. If given time to grow, melanoma can grow down into the skin, ultimately reaching the blood and lymphatic vessels, and spread around the body (metastasize), causing life-threatening illness. It is curable when detected early, but can be fatal if allowed to progress and spread. The goal is to detect melanoma early when it is still on the surface of the skin.

The best treatment is early detection. A quick look from a dermatologist can confirm whether a lesion is suspicious for melanoma. If so, the next step is to perform a biopsy. This involves numbing the area and removing the entire lesion, or a portion, which can be examined under a microscope. This simple, quick procedure is performed in the dermatologist's office. If a melanoma is detected, treatment is guided by how deep the melanoma penetrates the skin.

Simple surgical removal produces virtually a 100 percent cure rate. If left untreated, the melanoma grows deeper in the skin and is more likely to produce a life-threatening situation.

The most tell-tell signs that a mole might be cancerous is chages in the shape and color of the mole. If u see any of these, see a doctor immediately.
