Desmoplastic melanoma is a rare cutaneous condition characterized by a deeply infiltrating type of melanoma with an abundance of fibrous matrix. It usually occurs in the head and neck region of older people with sun-damaged skin. Diagnosis can be difficult as it has a similar appearance to sclerosing melanocytic nevi as well as some nonmelanocytic skin lesions such as scars, fibromas, or cysts. Desmoplastic melanomas tend to recur locally, with distant metastasis being less common.

  • Il melanoma desmoplastico (conosciuto anche come "melanoma neurotropico" o "Melanoma fusato") è una patologia cutanea rara caratterizzata da un melanoma infiltrante altamente invasivo con un'abbondanza di matrice fibrosa. Si registra solitamente nelle regioni della testa e del collo di anziani in seguito a cute danneggiata da fotoesposizione. La diagnosi differenziale risulta difficile, poiché assomiglia al nevo melanocitico sclerotizzante (benigno) e ad altre lesioni cutane nonmelanocitiche come cicatrici, fibrosi, cisti. (it)

Il melanoma demoplastico tende a ricomparire in sede locale. Si registrano raramente metastasi in siti lontani. (it)
