Definition
A MITF pathway-activated melanocytic tumor characterized by a cytogenetic translocation between ACTIN and MITF genes that results in ACTIN-MITF gene fusion. It presents as a single non-pigmented cutaneous nodule in the distal extremities or trunk. It is composed of large cells with clear cytoplasm that exhibit melanocytic differentiation and proliferate in the dermis without an intraepidermal component. Extension in the subcutaneous tissue is frequently seen. Atypical nuclear features may be present. It has an indolent clinical course.

Key figures
Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".
No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
