Sumario:A cutaneous melanocytic tumor with CRTC1::TRIM11 fusion (CMTCT) was recently described as a novel superficial tumor with melanocytic differentiation and harboring a unique in-frame translocation, CRTC1::TRIM11. This emerging entity can occur at any age and is known to be a low-grade malignant neoplasm with limited follow-up data. There are no available guidelines for the management and treatment of this tumor. This neoplasm has been found in the extremities, head and neck, and trunk. Here, we present the first case occurring on acral digital skin. This case contributes to the growing knowledge surrounding this newly described entity.
