Abstract
Lentigo maligna melanoma is a malignant melanoma with a recognizable clinical pattern. It is a slow-growing, pigmented tumor evolving from a premalignant lesion on the exposed cutaneous surface of an elderly patient. Histologically, it is marked by pleomorphism of melanocytes with evidence of invasion. A case is presented demonstrating the features of this malignant melanoma with an exceptionally good prognosis. The importance of the clinical and histologic correlation of emphasized to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment.
