Fig 2 Reflectance confocal microcopy mosaic (∼6.5 mm × 8 mm) of nevoid melanoma acquired at the stratum spinosum and dermoepidermal junction showing a slightly papillated, well-circumscribed, asymmetric lesion. The epidermis has a regular honeycomb pattern (green asterisks) without any prominent pagetosis. Multiple large, irregularly sized and shaped nests (red asterisks) are seen at the dermoepidermal junction. The inset in red (∼1 mm × 1 mm) shows the nonhomogenous, dense and sparse nature of these nests. The dotted-green box within the inset shows cytologic atypia (red arrowheads) within the melanocytic nests at a higher magnification. (Original magnifications: ∼×2; red inset, ∼×15.)

Fig 3 Histopathology image of a nevoid melanoma showing a well-circumscribed but asymmetric melanocytic lesion with junctional and dermal nests (red arrowheads). The inset shows cytologic and nuclear atypia in the melanocytic cells. (Hematoxylin-eosin stain; original magnifications: ×4; inset, ×20.)
