Lentigo maligna (LM) is a melanocytic neoplasm found on chronically sun-exposed areas of the body, particularly the head and neck. It commonly occurs in the elderly and has been referred to as a “senile freckle.” It has also been termed “Hutchinson melanotic freckle,” as it was first described by John Hutchinson in 1892. LM is defined as melanoma in situ and thus confined to the epidermis. LM lesions that invade the dermis are termed lentigo maligna melanoma, 1 of the 4 subtypes of malignant melanoma.
