A member asked:

I received a pathology report that i have an atypical melanoctyc lesion on a new spot on my outter thigh. what is this and should i be concerned???

A doctor has provided 1 answer

New lesion: Yes, this is an issue that needs care. You doctor must have the Pathologist's details and you must call her/him about it. Annoying that you are not called by a doctor, so please call and find out what needs to be done.
