Abstract

Recurrent pigmentations on scars after melanocytic tumor excision can be confusing due to its similarities to melanoma. Meanwhile, theseconditions which can be mixed with malignant conditions also cause difficulties in diagnosis. Herein, we present a melanoma case developedon a scar region after a while later compound nevus excision.

Özet

Melanositik tümör eksizyonu sonrası skar üzerinden gelişen pigmentasyonlar, melanoma benzerlikleri nedeniyle kafa karıştırıcı olabilmektedir. Malignite ile karışabilen bu durumlar, tanıda güçlüklere de neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, birleşik nevüs eksizyonundan kısa bir süre sonra skar yerinden gelişmiş bir melanom olgusu sunulmuştur.
