Recent advances in molecular genetics of melanoma progression: implications for diagnosis and treatment
2016-06-28
Abstract excerpt
According to the multi-step carcinogenesis model of cancer, initiation results in a benign tumor and subsequent genetic alterations lead to tumor progression and the acquisition of the hallmarks of cancer. This article will review recent discoveries in our understanding of initiation and progression in melanocytic neoplasia and the impact on diagnostic dermatopathology.
