ABSTRACT
Lentigo maligna melanoma(LMM) is the least common type of melanoma. LMM is almost exclusively located on sun-exposed skin of the head and neck. We describe a case of lentigo maligna melanoma evolved from lentigo maligna in 82-year-old man. Five years ago, the patient developed a brownish pigmented lesion on the left cheek. The lesion progressed slowly, and several months ago, a black pigmented patch was developed in the periphery of the brownish pigmented patch. Histopathologic examination of the lesions revealed findings consistent with lentigo maligna and lentigo maligna melanoma.
