Abstract

AbstractThe lentiginous spread of melanocytes into the hair follicle can be observed in a number of benign melanocytic neoplasms such as in nevi but also in sun‐induced melanocytic hyperplasia and melanoma. The follicular colonization by melanocytes in melanoma is classified into three distinct patterns: primary follicular melanoma, melanoma with folliculotropism, and invasive melanoma arising from melanoma in situ with folliculotropism. The role of follicular colonization in melanoma pathologic staging is still a matter of debate though the description of the latter has been recommended by the International Collaboration on Cancer Reporting. In this review, we will discuss the role of follicular colonization in melanoma and melanocytic nevi as well as the facts and controversies regarding this topic.
