Non‐melanocytic mimics of melanocytic neoplasms

Histopathology, 2011
Bhawan J 
(2012) Histopathology 60, 715–730
Non‐melanocytic mimics of melanocytic neoplasmsOn histopathologic examination, many non‐neoplastic conditions mimic benign or malignant neoplasms. Alternatively, some benign and malignant neoplasms can also mimic non‐neoplastic lesions. This is true of all organ systemsskin is no exception.

Studies on Melanocytes: VI. Melanocytes in the Middle Ear

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1982
Melanocytes are present in the lamina propria of the middle ear mucosa of young children to elderly adults in both whites and blacks. Melanin pigment melanin pigment also is seen in the epithelial cells, so-called melanogenic metaplasia. The melanocytes in the middle ear mucosa are of neural crest origin and their presence explains melanocytic tumors ...

Melanocytic lesions and melanocyte populations in human epidermis

British Journal of Dermatology, 1991
Basal melanocytes were counted and atypia assessed on an arbitrary scale in punch biopsies from the sun-exposed extensor aspect of the forearm of normal skin and from the covered skin of the buttock of patients with pigmented naevi and control subjects.

Keratotic Melanocytic Nevus

International Journal of Dermatology, 1990
Abstract:Thirty‐five percent of 363 melanocytic nevi were found to have a keratotic epithelial architectural pattern that was mostly infundibular and not previously emphasized. Keratotic melanocytic nevi were commonly from the trunk of women, and most were associated with an intradermal melanocytic nevus.

The melanocyte and melanoma

The Laryngoscope, 1990
AbstractThis paper reviewed some of the interesting biological aspects of melanocytes and their relationship to the nevus and to melanoma. It also proposed a rationale for “adequate” surgery in the management of melanoma according to level, depth, margins, and trends in treatment.

Congenital Melanocytic Nevi

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2009
This article reviews congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN), which are present at birth or appear shortly thereafter, and their main histologic features. Several histologic variants and histopathologic criteria that differentiate CMN from other nevi, such as atypical or dysplastic nevi, and from nevoid malignant melanoma, are discussed.

Non-melanocytic lesions mimicking melanocytic lesions

Pathology, 2004
Distinction between benign and malignant melanocytic lesions commonly represents a big challenge for the pathologist. Equally difficult is separating tumours with melanocytic lineage from those displaying other lines of differentiation. This is because benign and malignant melanocytic lesions are able to display a wide range of histological appearances

Expression patterns of S100 proteins in melanocytes and melanocytic lesions

Melanoma Research, 2009
S100 proteins are differentially expressed in tumours of epithelial origin. Little is known about their expression in melanocyte-derived tumours of neuroectodermal origin. We have analysed the expression of some S100 proteins in this line of lesions using SAGE Genie informatics, cell culture and human tumour tissue.

Epithelial, non-melanocytic and melanocytic proliferations of the ocular surface

Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2016
Ocular surface tumors are commonly encountered by ophthalmologists and ophthalmic pathologists. These tumors have varied clinical manifestations. In this article, we discuss the most commonly encountered non-melanocytic and melanocytic ocular surface tumors, with emphasis on their common clinical features, morphologic patterns, and prognostic factors.

Myoepithelioma with melanocytic colonization (melanocytic myoepithelioma): a case report

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2009
Mixed tumors of the salivary glands and the skin (also known as chondroid syringomas) contain epithelial and myoepithelial components in a chondroid to myxoid stroma. Lesions that are composed solely of cells with myoepithelial differentiation are known as myoepitheliomas.
