Many cases reported as malignant melanomas arising in benign congenital melanocytic nevi in the neonatal period have not shown evidence of metastases after several years of follow-up. These lesions were probably pathologically misdiagnosed, thus creating a controversy regarding the precise incidence. This article describes the case of an infant with a giant melanocytic nevus simulating malignant melanoma to illustrate the proper criteria for diagnosis of this condition so extensive and unnecessary therapy procedures can be avoided.
许多在新生儿期被报告为起源于良性先天性黑素细胞痣的恶性黑色素瘤病例，经过数年随访后并未显示出转移的迹象。这些病变可能在病理上被误诊，因此在确切发病率方面引发了争议。本文描述了一名患有模拟恶性黑色素瘤的巨大黑素细胞痣的婴儿病例，以说明诊断这种情况的适当标准，从而避免广泛且不必要的治疗程序。
