      Hi, new to group and have questions about my pathology report ( anxious and nervous) consistent with compound dysplastic Nevus ; mild atypia.  Lesions cells extend to tissue edges … positive margins…

      Any thoughts on this path report ?? 

       

      I go back in 4 months not for re-check … not sure if it will be re biopsy again since margins came back positive.

       

      Thanks in advance!!

            Hi Micky, sorry that no one has answered you on your question. Last week some one decided to piss off the person that answers these type of questions. She has been helping people for a long time here and knows her stuff. If you are looking for answers good back to older post and when you find one that " Janner answered" click on her name and look back on her old posts, your type of question has come up many times and I wouldn't attempt to give you an answer since it isn't in my wheel house. For what it is worth the words "compound dysplastic nevus, mild atypia" don't sound like melanoma to me!!!!
