Open-access Reed nevus (pigmented spindle-cell nevus): a report of three cases with distinct dermoscopic patterns

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    Abstracts

    Reed nevus or pigmented spindle-cell nevus may mimic cutaneous melanoma; however, its dermoscopic and histopathological characteristics are different. This case report describes three patients with distinct clinical, dermoscopic and histopathological presentations, which were correlated to enable a differential diagnosis to be made between melanoma and Spitz nevus.
