DO-7 antibody against p-53 antigen was applied for investigation of melanomas of facial skin (25 cases), oral cavity (17 cases), eye (18 cases) and naevi (25 cases). The p-53 index value (% of p-53 positive cells) was correlated with the thickness of the tumour, the presence of metastases and survival time. The difference in p-53 index between naevi and melanomas was statistically significant (p < < 0.01). A significant correlation was found between the p-53 index value and the thickness of the tumour, the presence of metastases and follow-up for patients with skin, oral and ocular melanomas. The possible diagnostic and prognostic significance of p-53 antigen in melanomas and naevi of the head and neck area is discussed.

D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.

D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.
