Abstract
Malignant melanomas are the most frequent skin tumors and, due to the early tendency to metastasize, are linked with an unfavorable prognosis. In the early stage of illness surgical resection is the treatment of choice. This case shows that even large exulcerated tumors of the neck can originate from a dermal tumor.
