Risk of Malignant Transformation of Congenital Melanocytic Nevi in Blacks

1 Sept 1994

Abstract excerpt

Abstract: The risk of small congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) developing into melanoma is not known, but Is highly controversial. The frequency of small CMN is, paradoxically, slightly higher in some populations, such as blacks, who are at a lower risk of developing melanoma than whites. An estimate of the risk of malignant transformation of CMN in such a low‐risk population could help In the management of...
