Help please! when someone gets a biopsy and is diagnosed stage 3 metastatic skin cancer, what happens directly after?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Needs More Treatment: Stage iii skin cancers are serious. They need evaluation as to the areas of spread, so the cancers can be cut out with surgery, or radiated. Otherwise chemotherapy or immune therapy will be necessary. So a good check up is necessary.
