Histological diagnosis of nevi and melanoma

The interpretation of melanocytic tumors represents one of the most important topics and probably the most difficult challenge in the field of dermatopathology. This text and atlas depicts as many cases as possible of the most important or challenging melanocytic lesions. It illustrates in detail melanocytic neoplasms of diagnostic interest encountered in daily practice. It presents a philosophy of diagnosis that differs from those found in existing texts.
