© 2014 The Authors. doi: 10.2340/00015555-1641 Journal Compilation © 2014 Acta Dermato-Venereologica. ISSN 0001-5555 Spitz naevus was first described by Sophie Spitz in 1948 (1). It is a variant of benign melanocytic naevus composed of spindled and epithelioid melanocytes, found predominantly in children and adolescents. A number of histopathological variants have been reported, such as desmoplastic, hyalinized, angiomatous, granulomatous, pagetoid, myxoid, tubular and rosette forms (2). We report here a case of tubular Spitz naevus with variable histopathological images, which partly resembled ependymal rosette in neurogenic neoplasms and partly resembled eccrine spiradenoma.
