Since there are no epidemiological data about the prevalence of melanoma in subjects aged 18-39 years, there are very few data available on risk factors in this age group and the impact of the disease.
The present study, therefore, will enroll about 25 patients who will attend the Dermatology Unit and who have a histological diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma in a period of 24 months of observation.
