ABSTRACT
Clinically, Spitz nevi usually appear as asymptomatic, dome-shaped, round to oval, firm nodules with a wide spectrum of colors ranging from translucent to purple, brown or black. The degree of pigmentation varies with the age of the patient and more darkly pigmented lesions are rare in children.
