Abstract
A 75-year-old man presented after recurrence of a pigmented macule on his left cheek. Approximately 8 month before a seborrheic keratosis had been diagnosed clinically and treated with cryosurgery and curettage. Dermatoscopy of the recurrent lesion revealed a number of criteria associated with lentigo maligna including asymmetric pigmented follicular openings, streaks, rhomboidal structures, and homogeneous slate-gray areas. Histopathology confirmed a lentigo maligna melanoma with a Breslow tumor thickness of 0.3 mm.Entities:
