BACKGROUND: High naevus count (HNC) (≥ 50 naevi) and presence of dysplastic naevi (DN) are risk factors for malignant melanoma (MM); however, MMs also occur in patients with low naevus count (LNC) (< 50 naevi) and in patients without DN. Little is known about differences between MMs in these groups.
AIM: To characterize the clinicopathological differences between MMs in patients with HNC and those in patients with LNC, with or without biopsy-proven DN.
METHODS: This was a cross-sectional retrospective chart review of 281 patients with MM seen between April 2013 and March 2014 at an academic pigmented lesion clinic (Boston, MA, USA).
RESULTS: Patients with LNC MMs were diagnosed at an older age (51 vs. 41 years, P < 0.001, OR = 0.95, 95% CI 0.93-0.97), with more aggressive MM features, including greater Breslow thickness (1.1 vs. 0.8 mm, P = 0.01), more mitoses (2 vs. 1 mitoses/mm2 , P < 0.001), lower rate of superficial spreading subtype (58 vs. 78%, P < 0.01, OR = 2.57, 95% CI 1.31-5.03) and higher MM stage (P < 0.001), compared to patients with HNC. Patients with DN had similar trends as those in patients with HNC described above, and in addition, were more likely to have a truncal MM (55 vs. 39%, P < 0.01, OR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.22-3.18) with less ulceration (13 vs. 29%, P < 0.01, OR = 0.36, 95% CI 0.19-0.71). Patients without DN were more likely to have a history of a non-MM skin cancer (32 vs. 19%, P = 0.01, OR = 0.49, 95% CI 0.28-0.85) and an amelanotic MM (33 vs 21%, P = 0.03, OR = 0.55, 95% CI 0.31-0.96).
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with LNC may develop MMs with more aggressive features at an older age than patients with HNC. A history of biopsy-proven DN reveals distinct MM differences compared to patients without DN.
