Spitz
nevus is a benign tumor of melanocytic origin. The lesion is a usually asymptomatic,
solitary, reddish or pinkish, hairless, dome-shaped, smooth-surfaced, and firm papule
or nodule, measuring less than 1.0㎝ in the greatest diameter. In most instances,
it is encountered most commonly on the face and extremities in the first two decades
of life. The histologic picture of the lesion reveals numerous uniform nests of
spindle cells and epithelioid cells with sparse pigmentation in the dermis. We report
herein four cases of Spitz nevus with a review of literatures. |
