Critical Remarks on the Dysplastic Naevus Syndrome

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Developments in Oncology ((DION,volume 25))

Abstract

These critical remarks are not intended as a commentary on the previous papers on clinical and histological features of the dysplastic naevus syndrome in the two preceding chapters, as the author has not had the opportunity of reading these prior to preparation of this chapter. The ‘criticisms’ are therefore aimed at the publications over the past 4 years.
