Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the difference in anatomo-pathological and prognostic features of cutaneous melanoma in children, adolescents and young adults. Methods: This is a retrospective review on 383 young patients ≤ 39 years of age with cutaneous melanoma, in a period from 2006 to 2016 in Area Vasta Nord Ovest, Tuscany, Italy. We subdivided patients in three groups (children ≤ 14 years, adolescents 15–21 years, young adults 22–39 years). We correlated all the anatomo-pathological parameters with age groups. Results: We identified a total of 426 cases of cutaneous melanoma on an overall total of 383 patients. Mean age at diagnosis for all the patients ≤ 39 years of age was 31.2 years: in group A was 11.2 years, in grou...
