Introduction: The development of new and changing melanocytic lesions has been increasingly reported as an adverse dermatologic toxicity BRAF inhibitor therapy. Melanocytic melanomas induced by therapy that lack V600E expression have less commonly described. One mechanism proposed for the inhibitor-induced lesions, including those lacking expression, is paradoxical activation MAPK signaling pathway in wild-type (BRAFWT) cells. Case Presentation: Herein, we report a rare case 39-year-old...
