Perianal melanoma with a BRAF gene mutation in a young Portuguese Roma native.

BMJ case reports - 15 Feb 2016

Tan Jennifer

Abstract excerpt

A case of a young man diagnosed with perianal nodular melanoma with a gene mutation, accompanied by regional and pulmonary metastases on initial presentation, and later on with hepatic and bone involvement, is presented. The patient underwent wide local excision but was unresponsive to dacarbazine. Targeted therapy with vemurafenib had shown clinical improvement for a 5-month duration until he showed signs of...
