Clinical Follow-Up of Patients with Neurocutaneous Melanosis in a Tertiary Center; Proposed Modification in Diagnostic Criteria.

Abstract：

INTRODUCTION:Neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM) is a rare congenital syndrome. Except for some retrospective studies, information on clinical follow-up and management of these patients are limited. This study aimed to review our experience on diagnostic protocol and clinical follow-up of patients with NCM in a referral children's hospital in Iran. METHODS:Between 2012 and 2019, eight patients with NCM were consecutively managed in our center. Brain magnetic resonance imaging and cutaneous biopsy were done in all patients at diagnosis. Follow-up surveillance and characteristics of the disease are described. RESULTS:The mean follow-up period was 25.75 ± 13.81 months, and 75% of patients were male. Most magnetic resonance imaging findings were hypersignal lesions in the temporal lobe (75%), cerebellum (62.5%), brainstem (50%), and thalamus (12.5%). Dandy-Walker syndrome was found in 4 patients (50%), and shunt-dependent hydrocephalus was found in 3 patients (37.5%). Cutaneous malignant melanoma and malignant involvement of the central nervous system were found in 2 (25%) and 3 cases (37.5%), respectively. The mortality rate was 37.5%. CONCLUSIONS:There are no specific guidelines for management of NCM due to the rarity of the disease. This study proposed modifications in diagnostic criteria, as well as recommendations for follow-up surveillance.
