Characterization of the neoplastic phenotype in the familial atypical multiple‐mole melanoma–pancreatic carcinoma syndrome

Abstract

The current results provide additional evidence that multiple nevi, melanoma, or pancreatic carcinoma may be inherited as autosomal-dominant traits in families known to harbor CDKN2A mutations. Other malignancies may be a part of the phenotype in these families, although this hypothesis requires additional study.
