Mice with the 'lanceolate hair' mutation have abnormal hair and skin similar to human Netherton's syndrome.
research 571 Role of observation for excisionally biopsied moderately dysplastic nevi with positive histologic margins and risk of development of future melanoma
Watching, not removing, skin growths with moderate atypia and positive edges is okay; patients may get melanoma elsewhere, especially if they've had it before.
