From: Grading of Atypia in Nevi: Correlation with Melanoma Risk
A, nevus, compound type, with architectural disorder and mild cytologic atypia of melanocytes. This region shows the extension of the junctional component beyond the dermal component, with some papillary dermal fibrosis and lymphocytic infiltration but with only slight distortion of the rete ridges and with nevus cells that generally do not have nuclei larger than the keratinocyte nuclei nearby (H&E, 10 ×). B, the nuclear size in the nevus cells is near that in the keratinocytes (H&E, 40 ×).
