Abstract: In the article entitled “ATM Variant as a Cause of Hereditary Cutaneous Melanoma in a Spanish Family: Case Report” [Case Rep Oncol. 2024;17(1):386–91; DOI: 10.1159/000536105] by Gonzalo Lendinez-Sanchez et al., the authors request the following correction.Following publication of their article, it was noted that reference 24 of the article [Mucaki EJ, Caminsky NG, Perri AM, Lu R, Laederach A, Halvorsen M, et al. A unified analytic framework for prioritization of non-coding variants of uncertain significance in heritable breast and ovarian cancer. BMC Med Genomics. 2016;9(1):19] was cited incorrectly in the last paragraph by the authors.Following a discussion between the two author groups, the authors of this article would like to issue a correction to the last paragraph of their article. The last paragraph should be corrected as follows:“In the bibliography, a similar variant (c.3747–1G>A) has been described in the work of Mucaki et al. [24]. It abolishes the natural acceptor of exon 26, activates a cryptic splice site 13 nucleotides downstream, and would lead to exon skipping and frameshift. In silico analysis predicts skipping of the 246 nt exon, altering the reading frame [24].”The original online article has been updated to reflect this.
