Clinicopathologically problematic melanocytic tumors: a case-based review.

BACKGROUND: In spite of recent advances in the histopathological and molecular diagnosis of melanocytic neoplasms, a certain proportion of these lesions remain a daunting challenge for both the clinician and the pathologist.

OBJECTIVES: To emphasize the importance of close collaboration between clinicians and pathologists in case of problematic melanocytic lesions.

PATIENTS: We report and discuss 5 problematic scenarios of melanocytic lesions, including tumoral melanosis, nevoid melanoma, lentiginous melanoma, spitzoid melanoma and BAPoma that may pose diagnostic difficulties in our practice.

CONCLUSIONS: Clinico-dermoscopic-pathological correlation, with incorporation of all the available data, in problematic melanocytic skin neoplasms is of paramount importance for accurate diagnosis.
