ABSTRACT

Os autores relatam um caso de nevo de Reed, lesão que apresenta aspecto histológico de malignidade, mas tem evolução benigna. Paciente de 48 anos, masculino, cor parda, apresentava pterígio nasal no olho direito, associado a uma lesão pequena e pouco pigmentada localizada na cabeça do mesmo. Realizou-se exérese de ambos, sem intercorrências, sem sinais de recidiva. O exame histopatológico revelou lesão com bordas definidas, restrita ao epitélio, constituída por células fusiformes perpendiculares à superfície, com pigmentação melânica esparsa. O diagnóstico inicial foi nevo de Spitz, mas, posteriormente, chegou-se à conclusão que se tratava do nevo de células fusiformes de Reed. O presente relato é o segundo na literatura mundial e o primeiro no Brasil.


The authors report one case of nevus of Reed, which has histological aspect of malignancy, but a benign evolution. A 48-years-old brown skin male presented nasal pterygium in right eye, associated with a small and poorly pigmented lesion located on the pterygium head. Both were excised without complications and, currently, there is no recidivation. The histopathological examination revealed one lesion with defined edges, limited to the epithelium, consisted of spindle cells perpendiculars to the surface and with sparse melanin pigmentation. The initial diagnosis was Spitz nevus, but, afterwards, we concluded that was the spindle cell nevus of Reed. This report is the second in the international literature and the first in Brazil.
