Novel pleiotropic risk loci for melanoma and nevus density implicate multiple biological pathways
Nature Communications, 2018 Melanocytic nevus count is associated with melanoma risk. In this study, a meta-analysis of 11 nevus GWAS studies identifies novel SNPs in KITLG and 9q32, and bivariate analysis with melanoma GWAS meta-analysis reveals that most nevus genes affect ...

Melanin pigments in the melanocytic nevus regress spontaneously after inactivation by high hydrostatic pressure. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 We report a novel treatment for giant congenital melanocytic nevi (GCMN) that involves the reuse of resected nevus tissue after high hydrostatic pressurization (HHP). However, the remaining melanin pigments in the inactivated nevus tissue pose a problem;

Secondary Malignant Tumors Arising in Nevus Sebaceus: Two Case Reports
Diagnostics, 2022 Nevus sebaceus is a benign tumor that is present at birth and is often seen on the scalp or face. Secondary malignant tumors sometimes occur in nevus sebaceus in adulthood. Herein, we present two malignant tumors arose from nevus sebaceus.

Common Blue Nevus withSatellite Lesions Needs aDifferential Diagnosis from Malignant Melanoma
Case Reports in Dermatology, 2013 Malignant blue nevus is rare, and a common blue nevus rarely needs a differential diagnosis from malignant melanoma. Although a melanocytic nevus with a satellite lesion is usually suggestive of a peripherally disseminating malignant melanoma, very few ...
