The most frequent genetic aberrations in mucosal melanoma are activating mutations of c-KIT. Primary malignant melanomas of esophagus (PMME) are uncommon entities, with aggressive biological behavior and poor prognosis. The better definition of their genotype could improve therapeutic options.

The most frequent genetic aberrations in mucosal melanoma are activating mutations of c-KIT. Primary malignant melanomas of esophagus (PMME) are uncommon entities, with aggressive biological behavior and poor prognosis. The better definition of their genotype could improve therapeutic options.
