RAGNI, Eduardo Scardazzi Silva et al. Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma: Case Report. Rev Soc Port Dermatol Venereol [online]. 2021, vol.79, n.1, pp.55-57. Epub 15-Jun-2021. ISSN 2182-2395. https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.79.1.1269.
Abstract: Pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma is a rare, newly described melanocytic tumor that encompasses lesions previously classified as animal type melanomas and epithelioid blue nevus of the Carney complex. Pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma is a specific clinicopathological entity with particular clinical presentation and histological features. We present the case of a 5 year old female patient with a heavily pigmented papule on her right thigh that showed histological findings compatible with pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma and discuss the relevance /clinical significance of sentinel lymph node biopsy as a staging procedure in this particular neoplasm.
