Summary
Dysplastic naevus is one of the most controversial topics in dermatology. The concept of dysplastic naevi was introduced by Clark in 1978. It was based on the study of families and individuals with multiple melanocytic naevi with predisposition to development of malignant melanoma, characterized by specific clinical and histological features – called dysplastic naevi. Later, the significantly divergent opinions concerning diagnostic criteria, prevalence and significance as diagnostic entity of these lesions appeared. Authors upon their own experience and recently published papers analyse causes of different views on dysplastic naevi and place of dysplastic nevi in modern dermatopathology.
Key words:
dysplastic nevus – classification – clinical criteria – histopathologic criteria – controversion
