Summary: Management of Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Complete skin and lymph node exam is important in initial evaluation of a patient with Merkel cell carcinoma and subsequent staging.

Prognosis in Merkel cell carcinoma is largely determined by tumor stage.

Surgery is the treatment of choice for localized disease.

Merkel cell carcinoma has an overall poor prognosis, with a high propensity for recurrence, especially with lymph node involvement or widespread disease.
