It is subtle Melanoma in Situ. Didn't state Clarke's Level but from what I've read it is the best kind to have as it hasn't progressed beyond top layer of skin! It is totally clear margins now.
I will quote the following sentences from pathology report directly:
"Residuum of the previously biopseid proliferation of atypical melanocytes & fibrosing granulation tissue Note: these changes are most consonant with subtle residual melanoma in situ. The melanocytic proliferation extends wto within 2.5mm's of the peripheral margins from 3 to 5 o'clock and from 10 to 11:30- with the suture to the 12 o'clock position. The examined margins are free of the melanocytic proliferation in these sections. Step sections have been examined. The previous biopsy specimen has been reviewed."
He gave me two cortisone shots bcz I am developing scar tissue (what else is new with me LOL!!!) and I have to start massaging it to break up the scar tissue. Otherwise looks great and I had a full body ck and go back in 3 mos again for another body ck.
