Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Amelanotic acral melanoma (AAM) is very rare and difficult to diagnose both clinically and pathologically. Complete-type AAM shows no black to brown pigmentation in the lesion, whereas incomplete-type AAM shows focal or subtle pigmentation. AAM has been the subject of few investigations. OBJECTIVES: We analyzed the clinicopathological features, BRAF mutations, and KIT aberrations in 35 Korean AAM...
