    Abstract In the concept of MDM, the term melanoma has been reserved for lesions showing a vertical growth component. Vertical growth, divorced from any prognostic implications, is simply a morphologic designation. Such a maneuver also serves to validate the category of MDM, although it might then be inappropriate to characterize such lesions as melanoma. From my view, the modifier "minimal deviation" takes the onus of prognosis out of the equation. For common melanomas, size of a vertical growth component has relativity to prognosis. It is unlikely that, in comparable size-ranges, the MDM have a more aggressive nature than the common melanoma. It seems appropriate to propose that MDM measuring less than 1.5 mm in vertical dimensions could be characterized as melanocytic neoplasia of indeterminant malignant potential. Those less than 1 mm in vertical dimensions would be borderline variants and those in the range of 1 to 1.5 mm would be intermediate examples. Those greater than 1.5 mm could be characterized as melanocytic neoplasias of indeterminant (uncertain) malignant potential without additional qualifications.

    Abstract The concept of minimal deviation melanoma is presented in diagrammatic form. In this approach, the precursors of melanoma are presented as having two dimensions and melanomas as having three dimensions. In turn, the relativity between dimensionalities and recommendations for treatment (as indirect correlates of prognostications) provides guidelines for the structuring of two major boundaries along the axis of the diagram. Finally, the domains defined by the two boundaries include borderline lesions, intermediate lesions, and "real melanomas." The lesions in the borderline and intermediate categories qualify as melanocytic neoplasias of indeterminant malignant potential; in these two categories, the predictability of metastases hardly justifies the use of the designation, malignant melanoma.

    Abstract Patterns in giant congenital nevi are classified as to extent of cellular involvement of the reticular dermis and by the quality of the fibrous matrix. In addition, classifications are influenced by degrees of cellular atypia. Two general categories are defined. In one, the phenomena are relatively independent of those operative at the dermal-epidermal interface. The lesions are characterized as dermal congenital tumorous dysplasias-blastomas. They are subdivided into major, intermediate, and minor categories and into mature and immature variants. In these variants, disparate populations in the patterns of nodules and plaques (lumpy-bumpy variants) qualify as dermal variants of minimal deviation melanoma as seen in the setting of giant congenital nevi. The respective melanomas in this category are small-cell malignant neoplasms (melanoblastomas of infancy and childhood). In a second category in the clinical setting of giant congenital nevus, rare childhood and some adult melanomas of a more common histologic type evolve from lentiginous and junctional components in patterns that recapitulate those of the dysplastic nevus syndrome. The suspicious areas in all categories are evaluated by the same clinical criteria. In the dysplasia-blastoma category, enlarging nodules must be biopsied. The criteria for the evaluation of lesions in the dysplastic nevus syndrome and in the category of minimal deviation melanoma have application to the unstable regions in giant congenital nevi.

    Abstract A 46-year-old woman presented with a pelvic mass. At the time of operation a large, exophytic, multinodular tumor extended into the peritoneal cavity and right broad ligament from a pedunculated attachment to the uterus in the region of the right cornu. On external examination the lesion had the appearance of cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma. On microscopic examination bulbous processes were composed of benign smooth muscle arranged in interlacing fascicles or swirls; there was focal hydropic degeneration. Significant nuclear atypia, mitotic activity, and coagulative tumor necrosis were not encountered. No intravascular involvement was present. There was no demonstrable parent leiomyoma or intramural dissecting component, and thus the case differed from previously reported cases of both cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma and intramural dissecting leiomyoma. This tumor represents another variation in the group of benign uterine smooth muscle tumors with unusual growth patterns.
