While clinically atypical naevi appear to confer an independent risk of melanoma, no study has evaluated the extent to which HDN are predictive of melanoma. OBJECTIVES To estimate the risk of melanoma associated with HDN. Secondarily, the risk associated with number of naevi a...

متن کاملHigh incidence of naevi-associated BRAF wild-type melanoma and dysplastic naevi under treatment with the class I BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib.
There is growing evidence that not only malign keratinocytic but also melanocytic tumours can arise during treatment with vemurafenib. During an on-going early access trial, 13 patients harbouring a BRAF-V600E mutation received vemurafenib (Zelboraf®) 960 mg twice daily to test the safety, tolerability, efficacy and response rate for advanced melanoma. Clinically or dermatoscopically suspicious...
