Spitz nevus is a benign melanocytic proliferation, typified on dermoscopy by the so-called "starburst pattern", characterized by peripheral streaks or pseudopods, symmetrically distributed. It occurs in both children and adults. According to the literature, it has been previously reported a difference in the dermoscopic features of Spitz naevi by age and anatomical site.

Abstract
Spitz nevus is a benign melanocytic proliferation, typified on dermoscopy by the so-called "starburst pattern", characterized by peripheral streaks or pseudopods, symmetrically distributed. It occurs in both children and adults. According to the literature, it has been previously reported a difference in the dermoscopic features of Spitz naevi by age and anatomical site.
