    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Lentigo maligna is a common melanoma in situ, typically presenting as a pigmented lesion.
    • Achromic lentigo maligna (ALM) is an uncommon variant that lacks typical pigmentation, posing diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • This report details a specific case of achromic lentigo maligna.
    • The clinical presentation and histopathological findings of this rare variant are described.

    Findings:

    • The case highlights the difficulty in clinically recognizing achromic lentigo maligna due to its amelanotic nature.
    • Accurate histopathological examination is essential for definitive diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • Increased awareness of achromic lentigo maligna is necessary for dermatologists and pathologists.
  • Timely and accurate diagnosis of this rare variant can prevent progression to invasive melanoma.
