REPORT OF A CASE

A 61-year-old white woman with a history of melanoma presented with an enlarging and asymptomatic lesion on her left arm for several months. Physical examination of the left deltoid revealed a 1.9 x 0.7-cm asymmetric, erythematous, and faintly brown plaque that was partially firm (Figure 1). Under dermoscopy, a patchy network and dotted blood vessels were observed. An excisional biopsy was performed for diagnosis (Figure 2 and Figure 3).
