DERMATOSCOPY OF LENTIGO MALIGNA

open access: yesDermatologic Clinics, 2001
Lentigo maligna and LMM require different dermatoscopic criteria for evaluation. The ease and accessibility of examining these lesions with dermatoscopy coupled with the clinical pathologic correlation afforded by the biopsy techniques discussed allow the practitioner to become proficient and prescient with the use of dermatoscopy.

Recurrent lentigo maligna as amelanotic lentigo maligna melanoma

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2002
AbstractAmelanotic lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma are extremely rare tumours. Even rarer is a recurrent amelanotic lentigo maligna or amelanotic lentigo maligna melanoma at the site of a previously removed pigmented lentigo maligna. We describe two cases of recurrent amelanotic lentigo maligna melanoma manifesting as erythematous plaques ...

Lentigo Maligna

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2021
Lentigo maligna (LM) is a melanocytic neoplasm found on chronically sun-exposed areas of the body, particularly the head and neck. It commonly occurs in the elderly and has been referred to as a "senile freckle." It has also been termed "Hutchinson melanotic freckle," as it was first described by John Hutchinson in 1892.

Lentigo maligna

Dermatologic Therapy, 2008
Lentigo maligna (LM), a melanoma in situ, is a fairly common melanocytic lesion that usually develops on the chronically sun-exposed skin of the head and neck of Caucasians. It occurs mostly in people older than 40 years, with an incidence rate that increases with age and peaks in the seventh and eighth decades of life.

Treatment of Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1980
Thirty‐eight cases of lentigo maligna and 22 cases of lentigo maligna melanoma, were reviewed in order to compare cure rates of various methods of treatment. Surgical excision resulted in the best cure rate (91%); destructive modalities were less successful (45%). All lesions treated with 5% 5‐fluorouracil recurred.

Treatment of Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1979
The results of treatment of 42 cases of lentigo maligna and 16 of lentigo maligna melanoma at the New York University Medical Center were reviewed. The recurrence rate after surgical excision of 22 lesions of lentigo maligna was 9% (2/22), but after treatment of 20 such lesions with destructive techniques (X rays, curettageelectrodesiccation ...

Lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1995
Lentigo maligna (LM) is a pigmented lesion that occurs on the sun-exposed skin, particularly the head and neck areas, of an older patient. The lesion increases in size and at some point, often many years after its onset, may become lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM). For this reason, most authors consider LM a form of melanoma in situ.

Lentigo Maligna/Lentigo Maligna Melanoma: Current State of Diagnosis and Treatment

Dermatologic Surgery, 2006
Lentigo maligna (LM) is a subtype of melanoma in situ that typically develops on sun-damaged skin. Presentation may be quite subtle and delayed diagnosis is common. Clinical margins are often ill defined. Histologic evaluation can be difficult due to the widespread atypical melanocytes that are present in the background of long-standing sun damage ...
