Overview
Dysplastic nevus was first discovered by Clark and his colleagues in 1978.
Historical Perspective
- Dysplastic nevus was first discovered by Clark and his colleagues in 1978.[1]
- The name ‘dysplastic nevus’ was proposed since they are benign melanocytic nevi that include cytologic atypia, similar to dysplastic lesions of other organs, such as the cervix.[2]
- At one time in the 1950s and 60s, (and, to lesser extent, currently) a mole was known as a “beauty mark” when it appeared in certain spots on a woman’s face. Examples include Marilyn Monroe, model Cindy Crawford and singer Madonna. Madonna's facial mole -- below her right nostril -- has been surgically removed.
