Abstract
We are intrigued by the report of Abraham et al.1 illustrating the case of a 4‐year‐old child with a histomorphologically atypical, but genetically normal (by array comparative genomic hybridization) melanocytic neoplasm, with deep penetrating nevus (DPN)‐like features. In a sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), there were foci of tumor, which the authors considered as an evidence of a ‘metastatic’ melanocytic tumor, of uncertain malignant potential (MelTUMP). Interestingly, the very same case was interpreted by McCalmont and Bastian2 in a ‘counter perspective’ as representing an ‘unconventional’ DPN with microscopic involvement of the SLNB.
