Are there any abnormalities in the routine blood test for melanoma?

1. Routine blood tests for melanoma may or may not show abnormalities, and specific analysis needs to be conducted based on the progression of the disease.

2. If the blood test is performed in the early stages of the disease, the test results are usually normal, so in the early stages of the disease, the blood test is not very useful for assisting the diagnosis of whether the disease exists. As the disease progresses and after malignant transformation, blood tests may reveal abnormalities in white blood cells, red blood cells, or white blood cells.

3. However, blood routine examination only plays an auxiliary role, and dermoscopy, biopsy and genetic testing are needed to make a final judgment. Dermoscopy is mainly used to examine lesion features that cannot be distinguished by the naked eye, such as striae or vascular features, which provides a certain basis for the diagnosis of melanoma.

4. Melanoma is a malignant tumor of the skin. After comprehensive examination, if the disease is confirmed, chemotherapy drugs such as paclitaxel injection and temozolomide capsules can be used under the guidance of a doctor to kill cancer cells or prevent their growth. The doctor is advised to formulate a specific treatment plan based on the condition. Regular medical check-ups are required during treatment.
