Large and giant congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) are rare melanocytic lesions mostly caused by postzygotic NRAS alteration. Molecular characterization is usually focused on NRAS and BRAF genes in a unique biopsy sample of the CMN. However, large/giant CMN may exhibit phenotypic differences among distinct areas, and patients differ in features such as presence of multiple CMN or spilus-like lesions. Herein, we have characterized a series of 21 large/giant CMN including patients with spilus-type nevi (9/21 patients, 42.8%).
