Surgical treatment of lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 1999Lentigo maligna (LM) is well known as an irregularly pigmented macular lesion usually presenting on the sun‐damaged head and neck of older patients. Lentigo maligna (LM) has the potential to develop into invasive melanoma (LMM). A method of surgical excision for the treatment of LM and LMM using paraffin sections with tissue mapping to ensure clear ...

Cryosurgery of Lentigo Maligna
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1992Lentigo maligna denotes flat, pigmented lesions predominantly in areas of actinic damage that have the propensity to become malignant. More than 10 years may pass before lentigo maligna evolves into an invasive neoplasma. As an invasive process, it is termed lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM), and it has the potential for both lymphatic and hematogenic ...

Summary Lentigo maligna (Hutchinson's melanotic freckle) has an amelanotic variant that may not be as rare as the literature suggests. None of the published cases were suspected clinically. In Australia we should suspect any slowly expanding depigmented or pink lesion on exposed areas, especially if it develops a nodule.

Lentigo Maligna, Lentigo Maligna Melanoma In Situ and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma
2012The spectrum of severely atypical melanocytic proliferations in sun-damaged skin of the elderly ranges from a proliferation of scattered individual cells along the dermal epidermal junction (lentigo maligna), to a dense proliferation of tumor cells that replaces the epidermis with nesting, confluence and pagetoid spread (lentigo maligna melanoma in ...

Cryotherapy for lentigo maligna
Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 1991Eleven patients, 10 with lentigo maligna (LM) and one with lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM), were treated with cryotherapy.

A 68-year-old woman had a pigmented lentigo maligna lesion excised from her left arm. During a seven-year follow-up period, the excision site gradually evolved into a hypopigmented macule with irregular areas of mild erythema. The clinical impression was neurodermatitis, but a biopsy specimen revealed lentigo maligna without melanin pigmentation.

Cutis, 2001
A lentigo is a small pigmented macule with a sharply circumscribed border. There are multiple clinical and etiologic forms. Lentigines are often initially identified shortly after birth, although they may appear later in childhood. Certain varieties are associated with systemic abnormalities.

Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma in Young Adults
Dermatologic Surgery, 2004We observed two young women with skin types II to III according to Fitzpatrick's classification who developed pigmented macules in the face that were histologically diagnosed as lentigo maligna melanomas.The objective of this study was to examine lentigo maligna melanoma in young adults.According to private photographs of one of those patients a ...

The risk of progression of lentigo maligna to lentigo maligna melanoma
British Journal of Dermatology, 1987An analysis is presented which estimates the risk of progression of lentigo maligna (LM) to lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) in U.S. whites using three data sources: the Health and Nutrition Examination Survey I for estimation of the age-specific prevalence of LM; the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program for estimation of the age-specific ...

Lentigo Maligna and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma: Recognition and Treatment
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1978Lentigo maligna is the preinvasive stage of lentigo maligna melanom, which is a specific type of cutaneous malignant melanom found almost exclusively in the head and neck area. The distinguishing features and the biological behavior of this disease are discussed.
