RESUMEN
Se han descrito varios subtipos infrecuentes de melanoma maligno en la literatura médica. A pesar de su baja frecuencia que no suele superar el dos por ciento en varias series de melanoma es muy importante reconocerlos precozmente pues un diagnóstico tardío está asociado a un muy mal pronóstico. En esta segunda parte incluiremos melanoma verrugoso, melanoma polipoideo, melanoma hipomelanótico y amelanótico, melanoma folicular, melanoma spitzoide, melanoma con diferenciación no melanocítica.
ABSTRACT
Several infrequent subtypes of malignant melanoma have been described in the medical literature. Although their low frequency less than two percent in various series of melanoma it is very important to early recognize them because late diagnosis is associated with a very poor prognosis. In this second part we will include verrucous melanoma, polypoid melanoma, hypomelanotic and amelanotic melanoma, follicular melanoma, spitzoid melanoma and non-melanocytic differentiation melanoma.
