손바닥에 발현한 유리질화 Spitz 모반 1예
2017
Hyalinizing Spitz nevus was first introduced in 1994 by Suster. It is considered a rare variant in the spectrum of Spitz nevus, with only a dozen cases having been reported to date. Herein we report a case of a 28-year-old Korean woman who had a brown papular lesion on the left palm, which was diagnosed as hyalinizing Spitz nevus. Upon histopathological investigation, discohesive growth patterns of nevus cells in a hyalinized stroma were noted. Immunohistochemical stains showed positive reactivity of nevus cells with S-100 protein and vimentin, but negative stains with HMB-45 and CD68. This case demonstrates a rare variant of Spitz nevus located on an unusual site, and calls for awareness in the diagnosis of cutaneous lesions that histologically exhibit a prominent hyalinized stroma.
