Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma is becoming more common. Although still rarer than some cancers it is important, particularly as if afflicts young adults relativel y frequently. Furthermore early detection with resultant better prognosis s hould be achievable if the public was to become more aware, and if health-c are professionals were more familiar with melanoma and the behaviour of nor mal moles.
