Abstract excerpt

Congenital melanocytic nevus syndrome (CMNS) is a rare condition characterized by pigmented skin lesions that are usually present at birth and are associated with an increased risk of neurological abnormalities and malignant melanoma. It mostly results from a post-zygotic NRAS mutation of neural-derived crest cells, leading to uncontrolled cell growth. Because of the increased knowledge of the genetics underlying...
