Stage 3 melanoma is defined by the presence of lymph node involvement combined with the thickness and ulceration in the primary skin melanoma. There are four subclasses of Stage III Melanoma: IIIA, IIIB, IIIC, IIID. The subclasses relate to the size and number of glands that contain the melanoma cells. There is no evidence the cancer has spread to 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.
