“…1 These features included variable cytologic atypia, lentiginous growth pattern, lamellar/concentric fibroplasia, confluence of nests, and lateral extension of the junctional component plus dermal maturation in compound lesions. 2 Nevi that display these histopathologic characteristics are termed ''Clark'' nevi by some authors 3 and ''atypical'' 4 or ''dysplastic'' 5 nevi by others. Since the original description, it has become clear that nevi with such features are more often sporadic than associated with a familial atypical mole/melanoma phenotype.…”

“…A and B, The architectural pattern is vertically trizonal with an atypical junctional component (1) overlying wavy dermal fibrosis(2), which overlies mature, nested dermal melanocytes that are quite small(3). C, HMB-45 staining shows nevoid pattern of maturation.…”

“…For each 'pair,' there is a specific set of characteristics and diagnostic criteria. (named after the scholar who first described it) but also known as papillated or verrucoid common nevus [2,3]. Unna nevus is typically located on the trunk and usually does not pose any diagnostic challenge whatsoever.…”

“…Later, Ackerman and Milde used the term ''Clark nevus.'' 11 Although it may be argued whether Clark nevus as described by Ackerman and Milde was meant to be synonymous with dysplastic nevus, the term has since been widely adopted as a synonym. [12][13][14][15][16][17] Because the term ''Clark nevus'' is still used by some to refer to any nevus with a shoulder, and by others as a synonym for dysplastic nevus, it continues to be a source of confusion.…”
