This article provides a framework for the investigation and multidisciplinary management of pregnancy associated melanoma (PAM) based on existing literature.
Approximately one-third of women diagnosed with melanoma are of child-bearing age. The annual incidence of melanoma has risen steadily over the last 40 years, resulting in increasing numbers of women diagnosed with melanoma both during pregnancy, and postpartum. To date, there are no formal guidelines on the management of pregnancy associated melanoma (PAM), both early stage and metastatic. This article reviews the existing literature and provides a framework for the investigation and multidisciplinary management of PAM. (c) 2022 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
