Abstract
This refers to a case of a malign melanoma in the nasal cavity. Melanomas of the mucosal origin differed from the melanomas cutaneous in that size of the primary lesion did not influence prognosis. Regional lymph node metastases are rare and did not influence prognosis. Local recurrence at the primary site is frequent. Surgical treatment offers long-term cure to only a limited number of patients.
