Abstract

Tumoral or nodular melanosis is characterized by a clinical lesion suspicious for malignant melanoma, the histopathological correlate is a nodular accumulation of melanophages in the dermis. We present a patient with nodular melanosis involving also the sentinel lymph nodes and discuss possible differential diagnoses as well as prognostic and therapeutic implications.
