Résumé |
The development of unusual melanocytic lesions after exposure to UVA tanning beds has been reported recently. We studied one such case with the use of light and electron microscopy and found the appearance similar to the lentigines that may occur after psoralen photochemotherapy. Histologically, some melanocytes showed mild nuclear atypia. Ultrastructural examination showed features similar to those of other forms of lentigo.
