Atypical fibroxanthoma-like melanoma: A rare subtype of high-cumulative sun damage melanoma with partial dedifferentiation and an aggressive molecular profile

Background: We report a rare case of atypical fibroxanthoma (AFX)-like melanoma on the scalp of a 75- year-old man. This case illustrates the phenomenon of melanoma dedifferentiation, resulting in an AFXlike appearance.
