Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mucosal melanomas (MM) represent a heterogeneous tumour population that exhibits site-specific molecular profiles. AIMS: In a multicentre retrospective study, we investigated KIT aberrations in primary anorectal (AR) melanomas compared with melanoma metastatic to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. METHODS: Primary AR MM (n=31) and GI metastatic melanoma (n=27) were studied for KIT mutations on exons 11,...
