Abstract excerpt
Acral melanoma occurring on the palms, soles, and nails is the most common subtype of cutaneous melanoma in Asians.

We performed next-generation sequencing and evaluated the correlations between genetic information and the clinicopathologic characteristics from 85 Korean patients with acral melanocytic neoplasms. Of the 64...
