abstract:
Melanoma arises by a process of stepwise progression in which the transition from melanocytes to metastatic melanoma involves several histologic intermediates. According to the “three-step tumor progression model”, these intermediates include radial growth phase melanoma (RGP), microinvasive radial growth phase and vertical growth phase melanoma (VGP) [1, 2].
