| However, when performing any part of the physical examination, family physicians should be alert for suspicious nevi. |
|
| Common benign lesions that mimic melanoma include seborrheic keratoses, benign acquired nevi and solar lentigenes. |
|
| On physical examination, no clinically atypical or suspicious nevi were observed on the skin or scalp. |
|
| The order of photography should also be adhered to in the case of follow-up exams to simplify comparison of the nevi with earlier images. |
|
| Although pigmented nevi are among the most common of these skin growths, other varieties of nevus are also known. |
|
| Spitz nevi usually have a papule or dome-shaped or relatively flat nodule, smooth-topped, hairless. |
|
| Blue nevi smaller than to mm in diameter and stable for many years usually do not need excision. |
|
| Halo nevi often undergo spontaneous involution, of ten with regression of the centrally located pigmented nevus. |
|
| Services also include removal of nevi, etc., and laser treatment for hemangiomas and portwine stains, and care of children with severe burns or frostbite. |
|
| Additionally, it has also been reported that it can overlie some benign and malignant lesions, including some nevi, melanoma and neurofibroma. |
|
| There was no asterixis, palmar erythema or spider nevi. |
|
| Epidermal nevi, of which the sebaceous nevus is an example, develop from the proliferation of normal epidermal tissues and are usually flesh-coloured or yellowish. |
|
| A torso or part-documentation involves just a small number of nevi. |
|
| It analyses melanocytic nevi according to clinically approved pattern recognition algorithms, providing you with a malignancy score for instant second opinion. |
|
| Melanocytes form nevi and from the nevi melanoma can develop through mutations in various genes. |
|
| To validate the modified protocol, 44 benign nevi and 30 non-lentigo maligna melanomas were also examined. |
|
| Neurocutaneous melanosis is associated with the presence of either giant congenital melanocytic nevi or non-giant nevi of the skin. |
|
| Neurotized melanocytic nevi and neurofibromas are common, benign cutaneous neoplasms. |
|
| So if you see lack of uniformity, think of things like atypical nevi, dysplastic nevi, or melanoma. |
|
| Two distinct types of speckled lentiginous nevi characterized by macular versus papular speckles. |
|
|
|
| A number of disorders occur in association with vitiligo including thyroid disease, pernicious anaemia, hypoparathyroidism, Addison's disease, Halo nevi and diabetes mellitus. |
|
| On average, people have approximately 30 nevi on their body and most are congenital or develop during puberty. |
|
| Neurocutaneous melanosis is characterized by the presence of congenital melanocytic nevi on the skin and melanocytic tumors in the leptomeninges of the central nervous system. |
|
| Spindle cell and epithelioid cell nevi with atypia and metastasis. |
|
| This finding suggests melanistic hyperplasia, due to nevi or melanoma. |
|
| The relationship between tanning and number of nevi was independent of the child's hair and eye color, parent-reported sun exposure and skin phototype. |
|
| Histologically, first-stage sebaceous nevi are characterized by papillomatous epidermal hyperplasia, hypergranulosis, hyperkeratosis, and increased numbers of prickle cells. |
|
| Excessive melanin production occurs in melasma, lentigo, nevocellular nevi and malignant melanoma, whereas the loss of melanocyte function leads to vitiligo. |
