pubmed:abstractText |
We describe a 21-year-old female who presented with four agminate Spitz naevi close to the scar from a previously excised solitary Spitz naevus, and review the literature since 1987 on widespread and agminate Spitz naevi. Spitz naevi usually present as solitary firm red or brown papular lesions. Agminate Spitz naevi are unusual and they have been reported mainly in children. It is uncommon for Spitz naevi to recur after surgery and far more unusual for a recurrence to occur in an agminate form. Such lesions may mimic multiple satellite and in-transit metastases which can occur in malignant melanoma, and close follow up of any new lesions occurring in this case is intended.
