Özet
Malignant melanoma is a skin cancer with poor prognosis. Historically melanoma has been thought of as a relatively radioresistant tumour. Nowadays, radiation delivered according to hypofractionated schedule is the most used, although there are few data confirm that this schedule improves the therapeutic impact. We report a case, with stage IV malignant melanoma, whose tumoral bleeding was palliated successfully giving 20 Gy external radiotherapy in 5 fractionations.
