Stage 1 melanoma is defined as a melanoma that is up to 2mm thick. There are two subclasses of Stage I: 1A (less than 0.8mm); 1B ( 0.8 -1mm or any melanoma less than 1mm with ulceration and melanoma 1-2mm without ulceration). There is no evidence the cancer has spread to lymph nodes or distant sites (metastasis).
Melanoma Patients Australia recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of Australia, and we acknowledge, respect and embrace their continued connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past, present and emerging.
We recognise, value and celebrate diversity and act in the spirit of inclusion.
