Dermal Melanocytic Disorders
Dermal melanocytic disorders present as bluish pigmentation on the skin. Several entities including Mongolian spot, aberrant Mongolian spot, nevus of Ota, and nevus of Ito have been reported. It is often difficult to distinguish between the different entities from their overlapping features. Although they share similar etiologies and histologic findings, their co-morbidities and prognosis differ. In this paper, we report four cases of dermal melanocytic disorders of which we were not able to make a clear-cut diagnosis. Also, we briefly review the dermal melanocytic disorders.
