Sammanfattning

Dermoscopy of early-stage melanoma can be challenging, and repeated examination at three-month intervals may disclose subtle changes. In patients with atypical nevus syndrome or more than 50 nevi, repetitive excision of benign lesions does not guarantee that melanomas will be identified at an early stage and exposes patients to potentially disfiguring surgery. We present the case of a high-risk patient where repeated dermoscopy of an in situ melanoma showed that part of the pigment network had coarsened, even though the lesion had not changed macroscopically.
