Using immunohistochemistry, Yu et al [ 8 ] reported capsular benign melanocytic nevi in 4% (9/235) of sentinel lymph nodes of melanoma from 9% (8/94) cases (some cases had more than one sentinel lymph node).
Capsular melanocytic nevi appear to be the most significant benign lesion that could pose a diagnostic challenge in the interpretation of melanoma micrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes.
Although, these melanocytic capsular nevi appear benign morphologically, a low probability that they may represent subtle metastases was also considered.
As compared to this, none of the 81 slices of sentinel lymph nodes from 30 cases of mammary carcinoma showed capsular melanocytic nevi.
Morphology appears to be the single most important tool facilitating their correct interpretation [ 6 ] . Other approaches, including the observation that capsular nevi are non-immunoreactive or weakly immunoreactive for HMB45, have been suggested for differentiating capsular nevi from melanoma micrometastases [ 21 ] . However, it is important to note that a significant number of melanomas are also non-immunoreactive for HMB45.
