| Abstract |
Melanoma incidence in Australia remains the highest in the world; hence understanding its causation is paramount for future therapeutic developments. Multiple primary melanomas are also common occurrences among the Australian population with identified risk factors such as personal and family history of melanoma, fair skin type, dysplastic naevus syndrome and history of significant ultraviolet exposure. The roles of both environmental and genetic factors have been elucidated in melanoma development, but the synergy of interactions between the two remains complex given the heterogeneous nature of the disease. We present a rare case of a 57-year-old female with 20 cutaneous melanomas and review the role of genetic and environmental factors in development of her multiple primary melanomas. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 June 2015.
All research outputs
#18,417,643
of 22,815,414 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Dermatological Research
#1,094
of 1,326 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#189,618
of 264,049 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Dermatological Research
#12
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,815,414 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,326 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 264,049 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
