    Area of Science:

    • Oral pathology
    • Dermatology
    • Dermatopathology

    Background:

    • Melanotic lesions of the lip represent a diverse group of conditions.
    • Accurate terminology is crucial for diagnosis and classification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize a series of melanotic lip lesions.
    • To propose a specific term for a subset of these lesions.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective case series analysis.
    • Review of 41 cases of lip melanotic lesions diagnosed between 1980 and 1984.

    Main Results:

    • The majority of lesions occurred in young white women.
    • Lesions were predominantly located on the lower lip.
    • A distinct pattern was observed in this patient cohort.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings support the recognition of a specific entity among lip melanotic lesions.
    • The term "labial melanotic macule" is proposed for these lesions.
    • This terminology aims to standardize reporting and improve diagnostic clarity.
