Abstract excerpt

Spindle cell melanoma is a rare and distinctive variant of malignant melanoma that is composed of spindled neoplastic cells and includes desmoplastic and neurotropic melanoma. The lack of expression of several melanoma markers may result in a delayed or wrong diagnosis. In this study, we have analyzed in detail the phenotype of the tumor cells in 9 spindle cell melanomas on both paraffin-embedded and frozen...
