Abstract
Abstract—We report the case of a 23-year-old caucasian male that presented with a pigmentary, sessile, and firm lesion of three-year duration on the right arm. The biopsy disclosed a dermal proliferation of spindle and epithelioid nevus cells, clustered in theques, surrounded by a sclerotic stroma. The diagnosis was desmoplastic Spitz’s nevus. Many authors consider it as an unusual variant of the tumor described by Sophie Spitz in 1948; but some others mantain that this lesion is a distinct histologic entity, with their own features although sharing many other ones with Spitz’s nevus.
