Research Article: Clinical and histopathological features of lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma: a retrospective analysis in Korea
Abstract:
Introduction: Lentigo maligna (LM) and lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) are rare in Asian countries. The histopathological diagnosis of LM is often challenging, and misdiagnosis is common. Although histopathologic features of LM/LMM are known, statistical analysis of them were scarcely reported. In this study, we aimed to investigate the histopathological characteristics of LM/LMM in Korean patients and identify key histopathological clues distinguishing LM from benign lentigo.
