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, 1980Thirty‐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, 1979The 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 ...

Abstract Lentigo maligna (LM) is a melanoma in situ with distinct clinical features and histology. It commonly affects men after the sixth decade of life. Incidence rates of LM have increased based on early 21st century data from different countries; however, data are suboptimal.

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 ...

Lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1995Lentigo 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, 2006Lentigo 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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
