Résumé |
Eosinophilic globules were found in the epidermis of 86% of Spitz nevi, 12% of malignant melanomas, and 8% of benign compound nevi. Globules were difficult to find in the melanomas and compound nevi and were usually smaller than those occurring in Spitz nevi, where the globules often coalesced to form larger bodies. We did not find the staining characteristics of these globules by the periodic acid-Schiff and trichrome methods to be reliable for distinguishing melanomas from Spitz nevi.
