The natural evolution of Spitz-Reed nevi is poorly understood, owing to the lack of studies investigating their longterm clinical evolution and the fact that most of the lesions are surgically excised. The surgical approach is indicated because of the clinical and histopathologic similarities with melanoma that may create diagnostic confusion in some cases. Hence nowadays, due to the low incidence of melanoma in children and the development of diagnostic dermoscopic criteria, a less aggressive approach to SRN may be reserved, especially in cases with typical features. We report a case of a pigmented lesion that showed gradual changes, from a Spitz Reed Nevus with typical clinical and dermoscopic features, to a common nevus.
