Survival in patients with multiple primary melanomas: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Source: MDLinx, September 2020
Researchers focused on critically evaluating the available literature concerning survival of patients suffering from multiple primary melanomas (MPM) vs a single primary melanoma and describing statistical methods employed.
For this purpose, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus were explored from January 1956 to June 2019.
As a result, studies published in English assessing survival in patients with multiple melanomas were identified. This analysis involved 14 eligible studies.
