L'expression sans mélanome est malheureuse. Comment peut-il y avoir cancer sans mélanome? Mélanome est pris ici dans le sens nord américain (il y a mélanome mais il est bénin et non malin); en français international on précise généralement le type de mélanome, bénin ou malin; en Amérique du Nord par contre, le terme «mélanome» employé sans déterminant laisse entendre qu'il s'agit d'un mélanome malin. La vedette ici désigne un cancer dont le mélanome n'est pas malin. L'anglais utilise souvent des expressions comme «non melanoma» ou «non malignant» pour préciser qu'il s'agit d'un simple nævus ou mélanome bénin. 1, record 1, French, - cancer%20de%20la%20peau%20avec%20m%C3%A9lanome%20b%C3%A9nin
