Zusammenfassung: | We report a case of a 58-year-old female patient who presented with
multiple, asymptomatic, slowly-growing, raised pigmented lesions all
over her body for the past 10 years with ulceration in one of the
lesions on the trunk for the past five months. Histopathology of the
lesion revealed features consistent with melanoacanthoma. Here, we
report the first case of cutaneous melanoacanthoma presenting with an
ulcerated plaque and the third case of cutaneous melanoacanthoma with
multiple lesions. To the best of our knowledge, ulceration has not yet
been reported as a feature of cutaneous melanoacanthoma in the medical
literature. |
