It is important to get treatment for malignant melanoma. Without treatment, the cancer will go deeper into the skin and spread throughout the body, eventually leading to death.
The prediction about the outcome of a treatment is called a "treatment prognosis" or simply "prognosis." It refers to the likely course and outcome of a disease or condition based on various factors, including the effectiveness of the treatment and the patient's overall health. Prognosis helps guide treatment decisions and provides patients with expectations regarding their health journey.

The life span usually is not significantly affected. About half of the patients recover and can discontinue treatment within five years of the onset of their symptoms.
The expectation of the outcome of treatment is known as the prognosis.
Accurate prediction of the outcome for individual patients is difficult with osteochondrosis. Some patients will heal spontaneously. Others will heal with little treatment other than keeping weight or stress off the affected limb.

Usually, intravenous steroids are immediately administered to patients suspected of suffering from central cord syndrome, to decrease swelling and improve outcome. Surgery may be performed in certain cases.

Although it is never good to skip a treatment, patients do not receive treatments over the weekends. Missing one or two will not affect your overall outcome. The treatments will be added to the end of the course of therapy. When receiving treatments such as Stereotactic Radiosurgery with the Cyberknife, due to the high doses over the short time, missing a treatment is not recommended.
Oncology hematology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with blood disorders and blood-related cancers, such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. It involves a comprehensive approach that integrates both oncology (cancer care) and hematology (blood disorder care) to provide the best possible outcome for patients.
It is most likely that the speed of initial treatment will affect the ultimate outcome.
