Malignant melanoma of the gastrointestinal tract: an unusual localization
Journal Title: Medicine in Evolution - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
The presence of melanoma in the primary digestive tract is unusual and disputed, mainly due to the lack of evidence confirming the existence of digestive mucosa melanocytes elsewhere than the esophageal, rectal and anal mucosa. We hereby analyze a series of cases diagnosed with malignant melanoma of the digestive tract, along with the differential diagnosis and a literature review.
