If you have melanoma skin cancer, you may have questions about your prognosis. A prognosis is the doctor’s best estimate of how cancer will affect someone and how it will respond to treatment. Prognosis and survival depend on many factors. [cancer.ca]

Nodular malignant melanoma accounts for 20% of melanocytic malignant tumors and is associated with a relatively poor prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Polypoid melanoma has a rapid progression and a poor prognosis.3 Polypoid melanoma involving the skin primarily affects the back and has a 5-year survival rate of 32% to 42%.4 Poor prognosis has been attributed to the high risk for vascular embolization [mdedge.com]

This measurement is an important factor in prognosis; for example, a thicker melanoma has a poorer prognosis. Breslow thickness is more important than the tumor's Clark's Level (more below) in determining prognosis. [oncolink.org]
