To examine incidence and survival patterns of acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) in the United States. Population-based registry study. We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program of the National Cancer Institute to evaluate data from 17 population-based cancer registries from 1986 to 2005. 1413 histologically confirmed cases of ALM were reported. Incidence and survival patterns of patients with ALM. The age-adjusted incidence rate of ALM overall was 1.8 per million person-years. The proportion of ALM among all melanoma subtypes was greatest in Blacks (36%). ALM had five- and ten-year melanoma-specific survival rates of 80.3% and 67.5%, respectively, which were less than for all cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) overall 91.3% and 87.5%, (p<0.001). ALM five- and ten-year melanoma-specific survival rates were highest in Non-Hispanic Whites (82.6% and 69.4%), intermediate in Blacks (77.2% and 71.5%), and lowest in Hispanic Whites (72.8% and 57.3%) and Asian/Pacific Islanders (70.2% and 54.1%). ALM thickness and stage correlated with survival in gender and the different racial groups. Population-based data showed that ALM is a rare melanoma subtype, although its proportion amongst all melanoma is higher in people of color. ALM is associated with a worse prognosis than CMM overall. Hispanic Whites and Asian/Pacific Islanders have worse survival rates than other groups, and factors such as increased tumor thickness and more advanced stage at presentation are the most likely explanations.
