intradermal melanocytic nevus?
Question:
this is the result of a pathology I need to know what it means
Answers:
It means that you have melanocytes in the dermal layer of the skin. Nevus means that it is a mole. THIS IS NOT CANCER.
Basically there are a few types of moles. A compound nevus refers to a mole in both the epidermis and dermis. An intradermal nevus means that it does not extend up into the epidermis.
Melanocytic means that the nevus is made up of melanocytes. These are the cells that give moles color and give darker skinned persons their color. Since it does not say "melanoma" it is not considered to be malignant.
