NCT05463510

Brief Summary

Childhood and adolescence are a dynamic process in terms of nevogenesis, and the development and growth of new melanocytic nevus is frequently observed. Melanomas, although rare, can also be seen in the pediatric age group. Therefore, nevus monitoring with videodermoscopy may be necessary in the pediatric age group. Aim of our study is to show the dynamic pattern and diameter modifications in pediatric nevi.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Pediatric nevi diameter change in millimeters

    1.Nevus diameter change at 3/12/36th months (measurement of longest axis of nevus as millimeters with videodermoscopy)

    3-36 months

  • Pediatric nevi pattern change

    Nevus pattern change at 3/12/36th months (pattern is categorized as globular/reticular/homogenous/fibrillar/parallel furrow or combinations)

    3-36 months

  • Presence of peripheral globules

    Peripheral globules will be recorded if present and will be categorized as (increased, decreased or no change) at the 3/12/36th months

    3-36 months

Study Population

Patients who applied to the Dermatology Clinic of Istanbul Training and Research Hospital between January 2008 and January 2022, were diagnosed with pediatric melanocytic nevus clinically and dermoscopically were included. Patients who had records for at least twice with videodermoscopy every 3 months were included. In the study, 301 pediatric melanocytic nevi belonging to 50 patients were evaluated.

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects \<18 years of age
  • Subjects who have dermoscopic diagnosis of melanocytic nevus
  • Subjects who had dermoscopic follow up for at least 3 months

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects \>18 years of age
