Becker's naevus associated with connective tissue naevus.
Sir, Becker's naevus or Becker's melanosis is a relatively common disorder, which appears as a hyperpigmented, hypertrichotic patch located mainly on the trunk (1). Becker's naevus has been associated with various soft tissue and bony structural anomalies, such as hypoplasia of the ipsilateral breast, pectoralis major muscle, leg, arm and contralateral breast, spina bi®da, and pectus carinatum ...
متن کاملMucinous Naevus: A Rare Variant of Connective Tissue Naevus
Mucinous naevus (MN) is a type of benign hamartomatous cutaneous mucinoses characterized by deposition of excessive amounts of mucin in the superficial dermis in a diffuse pattern with absence of collagen and elastic fibres in the mucinous areas. It may be associated with features of connective tissue naevus of proteoglycan type [1]. There is paucity of literature regarding this interesting ent...

ISSN 0001-5555 Connective tissue naevi are circumscribed skin lesions characterised by an increase or structural alteration of either collagen or elastin fibres (1).

متن کاملDermoscopy of Naevus-associated Melanomas.
In order to determine dermoscopic parameters, a case-control test set of naevus-associated melanomas vs de novo melanomas paired by Breslow thickness and histopathological subtype was analysed by 2 blinded experienced dermoscopists, according to presence of naevus, pattern analysis and ABCD dermoscopy score. The ability to identify naevus-associated melanomas by pattern analysis was low for bot...
متن کاملMutational status of naevus-associated melanomas.
BACKGROUND The origin of melanoma has always been a debated subject, as well as the role of adjacent melanocytic naevi. Epidemiological and histopathological studies point to melanomas arising either de novo or from a naevus. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the presence of mutations in genes from well-known melanomagenesis pathways in a large series of naevus-associated melanomas. MATERIALS AND METH...
