Article Synopsis
  • About 5-10% of melanoma cases are hereditary, with CDKN2A and CDK4 being key genes linked to familial melanoma.
  • This study focused on analyzing these gene variants in Greek families with a history of melanoma, involving 52 families in total.
  • Findings showed that 46.2% of families had CDKN2A variants, which correlated with a younger age at melanoma diagnosis, but no significant links were found between CDKN2A mutations and MC1R gene variations.
