These effects were selected based on developmental biology knowledge and a hypothetical teratogenic process. Cumulative risk assessment was conducted for 14 European populations of women in childbearing age.

Distinct histologic subtypes include lentigo maligna (LM), superficial spreading (SS) MIS and acral lentiginous (AL) MIS. LM is the most common subtype, usually diagnosed later in life (median age at diagnosis of 66-72 years) and associated with cumulative ultraviolet radiation exposure.
