CASE 288: BLACK SKIN TUMOR, Dr PHAN THANH HẢI, MEDIC MEDICAL CENTER, HCMC, VIETNAM

Woman 55 yo  worried about the  black skin spot at the left eyebrow  which was getting bigger and  itchy recenlty in this month ( see foto),  and one dermatologist made a caution that was to be a melanoma.



Ultrasound  of this skin tumor by 15MHz probe with Doppler showed that was a superficial skin tumor, size of 2 cm  and rich vessel supplying.
Elastoscan ultrasound  showed this tumor in blue code, not invasive to deep layer.




What is your diagnosis for it ?




Operation for resection this tumor and microscopic report was a pigmented papilloma with melanocyte (see  pathology report).
