A patient comes into your office and she is very concerned. She has recently found out that her best friend since 2nd grade has a cancer called melanoma. She is frightened that she might have it, too, but does not have any idea what melanoma is. In your answer, please share what you would say to this patient to help her understand the following: What is melanoma? What cells are involved? Can the disease spread? What could possibly happen to her friend? Could your patient have caught this disease from her friend? Please answer this in narrative form (not bullet points!) as you would be speaking with this patient.
I'm very sorry for your friend! Melanoma is a type of skin cancer. It infects melanocytes , which are pigment-producing cells, in the patient's skin. Pigment is what gives your skin color. The disease is not contagious so you don't have to worry about whether or not you caught it from your friend! Melanoma is a very serious cancer but she can treat it through radiation and surgery. I hope she gets better!
