ABSTRACT
We describe a 23 year-old caucasian male who presented with
a depigmented lesion in the scalp compatible with halo nevus
or Sutton’s nevus stage ii , two years after resection of a superficial
spreading melanoma. An extensive review of the literature
was performed focusing on the different presentations and
theories concerning the behavior of this phenomenon and its
relation with malignant melanoma.
