Description
LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase), an enzyme involved in converting sugars to energy in the body, is elevated in some malignancies. LDH level is a prognostic factor for patients with Stage IV melanoma. This data Item refers to the Upper Limit of Normal in the laboratory test used to interpret the Serum LDH result.
Rationale
LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) Upper Limits of Normal is a Registry Data Collection Variable in AJCC. It was previously collected as Melanoma Skin, CS SSF# 6.
