Malignant melanoma metastasis as a rare cause of abdominal pain
The authors present the case of a 71-year-old female patient who was operated on for 16 days of abdominal pain. The work points to malignant melanoma as a rare cause of abdominal pain and then shows the inscrutability of malignant melanoma and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to this type of disease including subsequent dispensary by an oncologist. The emphasis on the prevention of this disease is an integral part of this approach.
