A pigmented lesion on a shoulder



A 48-year-old man consulted for this pigmented lesion on his right shoulder.





Dermoscopy revealed:

  • an atypical reticular pattern
  • structureless areas with regression
  • a retiform depigmentation (negative pigment network)



Pathology was in favor of a melanoma in situ.
