Pseudopods

A 60-year-old man presented a nodular pigmented tumor on his chest. Dermoscopy revealed a pigment network at the periphery with many pseudopods (white circle), irregular dots and globules at 6 o'clock and 3 o'clock, and a blue white veil. The lesion was excised and pathology revealed superficial spreading melanoma with a Breslow index at 1.5mm and a Clark level II.
