The natural evolution of Spitz-Reed nevi is poorly understood, owing to the lack of studies investigating their longterm clinical evolution and the fact that most of the lesions are surgically excised. The surgical approach is indicated because of the clinical and histopathologic similarities with melanoma that may create diagnostic confusion in some cases. Hence nowadays, due to the low incide...

Nevi from these anatomic sites display at times histopathologic features that may lead the reading pathologist to recommend re-excision of these benign nevi. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive imagin...
