Erratum
The September 15, 2004, article by Gimotty et al entitled, "Thin Primary Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma: A Prognostic Tree for 10-Year Metastasis Is More Accurate Than American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging" (J Clin Oncol 22:3668-3676, 2004) contained an error.
A sentence in the first full paragraph on page 3671 mistakenly reads, "While eight factors were significantly associated with 10-year metastasis in the univariate analysis, only four—sex, growth phase, mitotic rate, and TIL—were significant in the multivariate analysis: the odds of metastasis was 3.1-fold higher for males than females, 42-fold higher for VGP lesions compared with RGP lesions, 7.7-fold higher for lesions with a mitotic rate (MR) greater than 0 compared with those with an MR of 0, and 2.34-fold higher for lesions with brisk/nonbrisk TIL compared with those without TIL."
The correct sentence should read, "While eight factors were significantly associated with 10-year metastasis in the univariate analysis, only four—sex, growth phase, mitotic rate, and TIL—were significant in the multivariate analysis: the odds of metastasis was 3.1-fold higher for males than females, 42-fold higher for VGP lesions compared with RGP lesions, 7.7-fold higher for lesions with a mitotic rate (MR) greater than 0 compared with those with an MR of 0, and 2.34-fold higher for lesions without TIL compared with those with brisk/nonbrisk TIL."
