Abstract
This was a retrospective study of all patients with a diagnosis of lentigo maligna or lentigo maligna melanoma at 50 years of age or younger at the time of their first diagnosis in two Australian tertiary centres. The low recurrence rate in younger patients in this study warrants further investigation. Early diagnosis in young patients is crucial to allow early treatment and lifestyle changes to reduce actinic damage and subsequent development of further melanomas.
