Abstract

On Saint Valentine's day, a couple of spouses sought our consultation to evaluate their nevi. Clinical examination surprisingly revealed in both of them an atypical pigmented lesion of the right shoulder, that dermoscopically showed clear-cut melanoma features (fig. 1). They immediately underwent surgical excision and histopathology confirmed respectively a 1.3 mm Breslow thickness melanoma for the husband and a 0.8 mm Breslow thickness melanoma for his wife.
