Personalized surveillance in giant congenital melanocytic nevus, including the role of AI, histopathology and MC1R genotyping: A case report.

Giant congenital melanocytic nevi (GCMN) are rare pigmented skin lesions present at birth that carry an increased risk of malignant melanoma and neurocutaneous melanosis. Early diagnosis and long-term follow-up care are essential for high-risk patients. The combination of modern imaging techniques with genetic testing can enable a more comprehensive risk assessment. The present case describes a 55...
