Many ELM criteria have been described. One of the most important ELM criteria is the pigment network (PN).<\/jats:p>Objective:<\/jats:bold> The aim of this study is to identify benign ELM (dermoscopic) network patterns of dysplastic melanocytic nevi (DMN).<\/jats:p>Methods:<\/jats:bold> This study included 907 dysplastic melanocytic nevi in 178 patients. Prior to biopsy, each lesion was photographed with oil immersion, and the images were viewed on a high\u2010resolution compact slide projector. For each PSL, the ELM Network Features and ABCD\u2010score were evaluated.<\/jats:p>Results and discussion:<\/jats:bold> The benign dermoscopic network features in DMN are the presents of a regular PN with delicate lines and margins, which predominantly thins out at the border of the lesion. For DMN, with these features, the mean ABCD score is smaller than ABCD\u2010score for DMNs with irregular, prominent PN and network patches, ending abruptly at the periphery. In DMN with a network predominantly thinning out at the border of the lesion several uniform network patterns were found\u2014diffuse network pattern, patchy network pattern, structureless center pattern, globular center pattern, and pigmented\u2010blotch center pattern.<\/jats:p>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> Benign features of pigment network are regularity, delicacy and thinning out at the border of the lesion. Benign dermoscopic network patterns are diffuse network pattern, patchy network pattern, structureless center pattern, globular center pattern, and pigmented\u2010blotch center pattern. They can be found in DMN with a network predominantly thinning out at the border of the lesion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-0846.2002.00341.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,3,12]],"date-time":"2003-03-12T20:44:31Z","timestamp":1047501871000},"page":"271-275","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Benign dermoscopic network patterns in dysplastic melanocytic nevi"],"prefix":"10.1034","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Petranka","family":"Troyanova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2002,11,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","volume-title":"A New Approach to the Early Detection of Melanoma.
