Oral Melanoma

Oral melanoma is a very rare malignancy that progresses rapidly and proves to be particularly aggressive. The clinical aspect of oral melanoma is varied. Still, it usually presents as a black-brown patch, macule, or nodular lesion with different shades of grey, red, purple, or areas of depigmentation. This activity reviews the etiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology, history and physical evaluation, and diagnosis of oral melanoma, with its differential diagnosis and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management.
