Sophie Spitz initially scripted the specific melanocytic neoplasm in 1948 as “juvenile melanomas†or as “melanoma of childhoodâ€. Spitz nevi are enunciated as benign melanocytic neoplasm preponderantly occurring in the paediatric age group although adults are also incriminated [1]. Spitzoid neoplasm is infrequently occurring melanocytic lesions of children or adolescents which constitute an estimated 1% of surgically resected melanocytic neoplasm. Reed nevus is designated as the pigmented variant of Spitz nevus with an identical morphology and evolution, frequently exemplified on lower extremities.
