Background: Cutaneous melanocytic tumors with BAP-1 inactivation (BIMTs), linked to mutations in the BAP-1 gene, present diagnostic challenges due to their morphological similarities with other melanocytic lesions. The search for reliable diagnostic markers, including PRAME, holds potential to significantly improve the accuracy of differential diagnoses.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 32 BIMTs from 25 patients, collected between 2018 and 2022, involved histologic examination and immunostaining for BAP-1 and PRAME.
