AHNS Virtual Education Series: “Exploring Controversies in Management of Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma of the Head and Neck”


AHNS Virtual Education Series

Presented by the AHNS Cutaneous Cancer Section
“Exploring Controversies in Management of Cutaneous
Malignant Melanoma of the Head and Neck”
May 17, 2023 at 7:00 PM Eastern Time

Many advances have been made in the management of cutaneous malignant melanoma of the head and neck over the last decade with results from the MSLT I and II trials guiding our surgical management and increased utilization of immunotherapy for advanced stage melanoma. However, there is variability in how physicians apply this to the head and neck cohort, such as differences in the management of positive sentinel lymph node with completion lymphadenectomy versus observation, when to consider neoadjuvant or adjuvant immunotherapy, or the safe utilization of Mohs micrographic surgery for management of melanoma. This webinar will provide a lively discussion of relevant real-life cases that cover the breadth of these controversies to discuss best practices and evidence-based management of these patients.

Moderator:
Karen Y. Choi, MD, FACS

Panelists:
Mary Stevenson, MD – Mohs Dermatology – NYU (New York University)
Kelly Malloy, MD – Head and Neck Surgery – University of Michigan
Kerwin Shannon, FRACS – Head and Neck Surgery – Melanoma Institute Australia
Leslie Fecher, MD – Medical Oncology, University of Michigan
Devarati Mitra, MD, PhD- Radiation Oncology – MD Anderson Cancer Center
Jane Messina, MD – Dermatopathology – Moffitt Cancer Center

One-hour session is free to all registrants!
