Abstract excerpt

Death due to melanoma in childhood (up to 20 y of age) is a rare event, with an average of 18 cases reported annually in the United States. In this study we evaluated 2 subgroups of high-risk melanocytic neoplasms in childhood, specifically atypical Spitz tumors (ASTs) with chromosomal copy number changes and conventional melanomas. We analyzed the clinical, histologic, and molecular features of all cases and...
