Congenital melanocytic nevi: update in genetics and management.

Current opinion in pediatrics - 1 Aug 2016

Price Harper N

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The article intends to review recent updates in the management of congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) and the evolving genomic landscape that has begun to shed light on the nature of nevogenesis, malignant potential, and possible therapeutic targets for those with melanoma and neurologic involvement. RECENT FINDINGS: CMN are the result of postzygotic somatic mutations involving key proteins in...
