The Clinical Diagnosis, Classification and Histogenetic Concepts of the Early Stages of Cutaneous Malignant Melanomas
Abstract
RECENT data indicate that cutaneous malignant melanomas occur in distinct clinicopathological forms1 2 3 that have been designated as follows: lentigo-maligna melanoma (circumscribed precancerous melanosis of Dubreuilh with malignant melanoma, or Hutchinson's melanotic freckle with malignant melanoma); superficial spreading melanoma (precancerous melanosis, or "pagetoid" melanoma —MeGovern); and nodular melanoma (polypoid melanoma). Each of these kinds of malignant melanoma has a characteristic history of clinical evolution, a distinctive gross appearance (Fig. 1), and distinguishable light-microscope and fine-structure features, which are described below. Survival data for each kind of melanoma in relation to histologic depth of invasion are also discussed.Types of Malignant Melanoma . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
