- Abstract
- We present our long-term results of 44 children treated for giant congenital melanocytic nevus (GCMN). Although controversial, their potential malignancy enforces their removal. The choice of the technique is a real challenge but should attempt to remove all of the involved tissue with minor cosmetic deformity. Our present approach favours the use of multimodality therapy, and different surgical procedures being used for each region. © Springer-Verlag 2005.
