Abstract

Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) is the most common type of melanoma in dark skinned peoples and Asians. The mean age of ALM ranges from 55 to 68 years. We report a case of ALM in a 60-year-old male patient presented with growth over palmer surface of left thumb since 2 years. The prognosis of invasive acral melanoma is poor, but future studies are needed to know more about the clinical outcome of this malignancy.
