ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the clinical and histopathological correlation of dysplastic melanocytic nevi of the Sinaloense population.
Methodology: An observational, descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study was conducted. Pathology samples with histological diagnosis of melanocytic nevus were included and the correlation between clinical features and histological study was performed.
Results: Of 169 melanocytic nevi, 17% corresponded to dysplastic nevi and the clinical characteristics that presented mostly were asymmetry and irregular borders with a PPV of 24.4%; however, the agreement between the clinical criteria of atypia with the histological diagnosis of dysplastic nevi was low.
Conclusions: the clinical and histological correlation of melanocytic nevi is low and remains controversial. According to our results, the main clinical features were asymmetry and irregular border, however; in case of any suspicious lesion, the histological study must be carried out.
