A small lesion...


A 52-year-old woman consulted for a cutaneous check up.
Examination revealed this lesion.


Dermoscopy revealed:

  • maple leaf-like areas (black arrow)
  • blue ovoid nests (red circle)
  • structureless area (red arrow)


This lesion was excised and pathology revealed a superficial basal cell carcinoma.
