Acral melanoma, the most common melanoma subtype in East Asia, is associated with a poor prognosis. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the genomic characteristics of acral melanoma in East Asians. We conduct whole-genome sequencing of 55 acral melanoma tumors and perform data mining with relevant clinical data.

Mandibulo-acral dysplasia was first described by Young et al in 1971. It is a rare, autosomal genetic disorder describing characteristic general, craniofacial, and oral manifestations. However, the detailed characteristics of this multisystemic disease have not yet been clarified due to its rarity and the limited number of cases described.

Background: Acral melanoma, characterized by its aggressiveness and poor prognosis compared to other melanoma subtypes, poses significant challenges in clinical management. However, the molecular underpinnings driving the biological and clinical features of this disease remain poorly understood.
Objectives: In this study, our aim was to elucidate the molecular landscape and the correlation between subtypes and clinical features of acral melanoma.

Vitiligo poses a significant challenge, particularly in treatment-resistant areas such as acral regions. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining fractional CO2 laser and microneedling with conventional therapies for non-segmental vitiligo in resistant areas. A randomized clinical trial with a paired design was conducted on 84 individuals with non-segmental vitiligo and treatment-resistant lesions.

Programmed cell death-1 (PD1) inhibitors, a form of immune checkpoint inhibitor, are efficacious for metastatic melanoma but are associated with cutaneous adverse reactions (CARs). Studies in Europe and North America showed that CARs are associated with an increased overall survival. However, studies from Asia showed mixed results.
