Dysplastic nevi and melanoma.
Dysplastic nevi are described as being on a continuum between common acquired nevi and melanoma because they are morphologically and biologically intermediate between these 2 entities. Since initially being reported as histologic lesions observed in melanoma-prone families, there has been considerable debate about the definition of dysplastic nevi, the histologic and clinical criteria used to d...
متن کاملDermoscopic classification of atypical melanocytic nevi (Clark nevi).
OBJECTIVES To create a dermoscopic classification of atypical melanocytic nevi (Clark nevi) and to investigate whether individuals bear a predominant type. DESIGN Digital dermoscopic images of Clark nevi were classified according to structural features, ie, reticular, globular, or homogeneous patterns or combinations of these types. The nevi were also characterized as central hypopigmented or...

Malignant melanoma is among the malignant tumors whose incidence has risen markedly in recent decades. For many years the medical community debated the potential adverse effects of female hormones (whether of exogenous or pregnancy-related endogenous origin), on melanocytic nevi and malignant melanoma. Given that women have been delaying pregnancy until their thirties or forties and that the in...
متن کاملHypopigmented atypical Spitzoid neoplasms (atypical Spitz nevi, atypical Spitz tumors, Spitzoid melanoma): a clinicopathological update
The clinicopathologic classification, diagnosis, and management of Spitzoid melanocytic lesions is one of the most problematic topics in dermato-oncology and dermatopathology. After earlier anecdotal reports [1,2], the controversial history of these controversial lesions began in 1948 when Sophie Spitz described 13 cases of what she called “juvenile melanoma,” underlining its presumably good pr...
متن کاملCKS1 expression in melanocytic nevi and melanoma
Cyclin-dependent kinase subunit 1 (Cks1) regulates the degradation of p27, an important G1-S inhibitor, which is up regulated by MAPK pathway activation. In this study, we sought to determine whether Cks1 expression is increased in melanocytic tumors and correlates with outcome and/or other clinicopathologic prognostic markers. Cks1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 298 melanoc...
