In this month's skin cancer update, Professor Giuseppe Argenziano shares the results of his meta-analysis research into paediatric melanoma.
This is an extremely rare disease, especially in children under 10. In this video, Giuseppe talks about the two types of paediatric melanoma: congenital melanoma and de novo melanoma.
One of the major points from Giuseppe's recent research is that in children, melanoma is much more often associated with a pre-existing congenital naevus.
Another key point found in the research is that children who die from melanoma typically have nodular melanoma rather than superficial spreading melanoma or Spitzoid melanoma.
