Such lesions can occur in healthy individuals or as a manifestation of systemic disease. The pigmented lesions are presented as melanoplakia, melanocytic macule, melanocytic nevus or melanoacanthoma. Without appropriate treatment, they could transform into malignant melanoma.

The lesion subsequently is excised and pathohystologically examined in order to determine the diagnosis. Patient's recovery was uneventful, no complications are registered during the 6-months follow-up period.
