Saint Valentine's melanoma

Abstract

On Saint Valentine's day, a couple of spouses sought our consultation to evaluate their nevi. Clinical examination surprisingly revealed in both of them an atypical pigmented lesion of the right shoulder, that dermoscopically showed clear‐cut melanoma features (fig. 1). They immediately underwent surgical excision and histopathology confirmed respectively a 1.3 mm Breslow thickness melanoma for the husband and a 0.8 mm Breslow thickness melanoma for his wife.
