TL;DR
The recognition and differential diagnosis of lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma is challenging, especially in the early stages when there are no distinctive clinical features.
Introduction: Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an angioproliferative neoplasm driven by HHV-8 infection that exhibits variable clinical morphology across stages. Dermoscopy offers a noninvasive tool to capture the evolving structural changes in these lesions. Objectives: This study aimed to characterize dermoscopic patterns of K...
Background: dysplastic melanocytic lesions are associated with an increased risk of melanoma while their timely identification remains challenging due to the limited accuracy of currently available visual pre-surgical techniques. Aim: to compare performance and efficacy of two non-invasive skin imaging methods (i. e.,...
Cutaneous melanoma is less frequent than nonmelanoma skin cancers but accounts for a disproportionate share of skin-cancer mortality, making diagnostic timing clinically relevant. This critical narrative review examined the contribution of dermoscopy to early melanoma recognition and the prognostic meaning of Breslow t...
Nevoid melanoma (NM) is a rare melanoma variant that often mimics benign compound or intradermal nevi, both clinically and histopathologically. Due to its deceptively benign appearance, diagnosis is frequently delayed, resulting in advanced Breslow thickness at presentation. Although dermoscopy offers limited discrim...
Background. Skin diseases are common, especially in developing countries, and can substantially affect quality of life. Although many conditions can be diagnosed clinically, histopathological examination remains an important diagnostic reference in clinically uncertain cases. Objective. To assess the degree of agreemen...
Background and Objectives: Deciding which pigmented or non-pigmented skin lesions require surgical excision, as opposed to continued observation, is a common challenge in everyday dermatologic practice. Although dermoscopy is well established as a tool that improves melanoma detection accuracy compared with naked-eye e...
