Dermal melanocytic tumor with CRTC1‐TRIM11 fusion: Report of two additional cases with review of the literature of an emerging entity.

"Cutaneous melanocytic tumor with CRTC1‐TRIM11 fusion" (CMTCT) is a newly described, potentially novel entity that typically presents as a dermal nodule on the head and neck, extremities, and trunk of adults. Histopathologically, it is reported as a nodular or multinodular tumor composed of epithelioid and spindle cells that are variably immunoreactive for S100‐protein, SOX10, and MITF along with more specific melanocytic markers such as MelanA and HMB45. With only 11 cases reported in the English literature so far, the neoplasm appears to behave in a relatively indolent fashion. Nevertheless, in one case, local recurrence and synchronous distant metastasis were evident after 13 years. Additional cases with longer follow‐up are essential to determine the neoplasm's biologic behavior with more accuracy. Herein, two cases of CMTCT, one arising on the lower back of a 65‐year‐old female and the other on the arm of a 33‐year‐old female in addition to a comprehensive literature review are reported.
