Mucosal melanoma is a rare but aggressive cancer arising in mucosal surfaces most commonly in the head and neck. The clinical presentation is often nonspecific and differs in relation to the site of origin so often diagnosis is delayed resulting in poor prognosis. Mucosal melanoma has a 5-year survival of only 25%.

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2021
Purpose: Primary oral mucosal melanoma (OMM) is a rare neoplasm accounting for the 0.2% to 0.8% of all melanomas. The aim of the present manuscript is (1) to describe 2 cases of primary OMM treated at our department, and (2) to perform a systematic literature review on primary OMM occurrence and treatment

Anorectal mucosal melanoma accounts for less than 1 % of all anorectal malignant tumors and a tendency for delayed diagnosis leads to advanced disease at presentation.1,2 Due to the rarity of the disease, there are limited prospective trials exploring the optimal treatment strategies.

The mutational landscape of mucosal melanoma
Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2020 Mucosal melanoma is a rare and aggressive subtype of melanoma that has a less favorable prognosis due to the lack of understanding and identification of oncogenic drivers. Recently, whole genome and whole exome sequencing have unveiled the molecular landscape and potential oncogenic drivers of mucosal melanoma, which remains distinct from cutaneous ...

Cutaneous malignant melanoma is a common malignancy and has been increasing at an alarming rate in the United States. Sun exposure is a well-known risk factor related to this disease and much is understood regarding the etiology and epidemiology of cutaneous melanomas. In contrast, primary mucosal melanomas represent an extremely rare malignancy and do

Radiotherapy for mucosal melanomas
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1982Twelve patients who were primarily irradiated at the Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) for mucosal melanomas of the head and neck and 6 patients irradiated for mucosal melanomas of the vagina and anorectal region are reported. The PMH results of irradiation of mucosal melanomas of the head and neck are combined with the literature results for this type ...

Primary mucosal melanomas are rare, biologically aggressive neoplasms. The distribution of head and neck, female genital tract, anal/rectal, and urinary tract sites is 55.4%, 18.0%, 23.8%, and 2.8%, respectively. The median age at presentation is the seventh decade, and women are given the diagnosis more frequently than men.

Mucosal melanomas, far fewer in number than melanomas of the skin, manifest a far more aggressive and more rapid life-consuming biologic course. This behavior attends melanomas at any mucosal site, upper aerodigestive tracts, anorectum, and male and female genital tracts.
