Nevo de Reed (nevo de células fusiformes): relato de três casos com padrões dermatoscópicos distintos Reed nevus (pigmented spindle-cell nevus): a report of three cases with distinct dermoscopic patterns

Abstract

O nevo de Reed ou nevo de células fusiformes pigmentado pode ser um simulador do melanoma cutâneo. Apresenta, entretanto, diferentes características dermatoscópicas e histopatológicas. Trata-se de relato de três pacientes com apresentações clínicas, dermatoscópicas e histopatológicas distintas, correlacionando-as no auxílio diagnóstico deste com o melanoma e nevo de Sptiz.Reed nevus or pigmented spindle-cell nevus may mimic cutaneous melanoma; however, its dermoscopic and histopathological characteristics are different. This case report describes three patients with distinct clinical, dermoscopic and histopathological presentations, which were correlated to enable a differential diagnosis to be made between melanoma and Spitz nevus.
