Dr. Tsao advised physicians to  

"be attentive to the possibility of second cancers in patients with melanoma and lymphoma. 

A suspicious lymph node detected after melanoma may not necessarily be a melanoma recurrence, but rather, it may represent a lymphoma. 

Similarly, skin examinations are important for all lymphoma patients."
