Title: Malignant Melanoma Arising at the Site of a Previously Excised Giant Congenital Melanocytic Nevus
Abstract: Congenital satellite nevi are known risk factors for neurocutaneous melanosis. 1Their impact on the risk for malignant melanoma is not as well established, but some studies point to a possible increased risk in patients with GCMN and satellite nevi. 1,3 In summary, our patient is an example of the need for continued dermatologic follow-up and high index of suspicion for new nodules appearing in patients with a history of GCMN.
