JAKARTA - Oncology surgeon Diani Kartini invites the public to detect the condition of flies that have the potential to become skin cancer by taking into account their shape. The dangerous fly feature is ABCDE. A is Assymetry, which means that the shape is not symmetric between the two sides,” he said in an online discussion of RSCM Kencana which was broadcast via Instagram followed in Jakarta, Antara, Monday, December 5. The second characteristic of dangerous flies is Border, which means that the edges of the flies are uneven. C is Colour or a variety of colors in one whale, such as dark brown and light brown. Then D is a diameter that is more than six millimeters and E is Evolution or there is a change in the size of a whale. "For example, there is a big lump, it becomes injured or smells, we must be aware that it becomes skin cancer," he said. Diani said that in order to diagnose flypots that include tumors and cancer, biopsy is needed, namely a test to detect and establish a diagnosis of cancer through the procedure of taking tissue or cell samples from the body. The autopsy is used to distinguish tame tumors from cancer and includes determining the cancer stage. “ With a biopsy we can 100 percent determine whether the cells are malignant or not. It must be taken because it will determine the next therapy, what is suitable for the patient,” he explained. Furthermore, the RSCM doctor also denied that the biopsy action would cause an active and diffuse tumor. According to him, often patients will consult several doctors, especially after biopsy is done to ask about types of therapy or options that can be taken to remove tumors or cancers. However, this actually makes the tumor cells or cancer develop. Therefore, he emphasized that the biopsy is only for diagnosing and if a biopsy has been done, therapy should be carried out immediately. “ If the biopsy was the cause of it spreading, the cause of it growing up and so on, if it was too late. But if it was as soon as the results of the biopsy were available, treatment would certainly not have happened like that. In addition, he said that efforts to remove flies using the laser method were allowed as long as they ensured in advance that the flies were healthy flies. "It's best to consult a specialist in skin and genitals before deciding to do a fly laser," he said.
