Abstract
This study underscores the great importance of self-examination in melanoma follow-up with over one third of recurrences being self-detected by patients. Self-examination was more effective for younger patients, emphasizing the need to increase awareness among older patients. This study also demonstrates the essential part played by dermatologists in terms of regular follow-up of melanoma.
