ABSTRACT
Pigmented spindle cell nevus was described as a variant of spindle and epithelioid cell nevus (Spitz nevus). However, it hs been classified as a separate disease because of the presence of large pigmented cells confined to the epidermis and papillary dermis. Pigmented epithelioid cell nevus is considered as a counterpart to pigmented spindle cell nevus, because it has similar clinicopathologic features to those of pigmented spindle cell nevus, except for tumor cells being entirely composed of large epithelioid cells. Herein, we report a case of a 31 year-old woman with a deeply-pigmented nodule which was entirely composed of large epithelioid cells, and showed many histologic findings of pigmented epithelioid cell nevus.
