Melanoma has been reported as the 6th most common of all cancer cases. Early detection of all skin cancers is very important to prevent the progression to advanced stages.",

Benign nevi are usually round or oval-shaped and are uniform in color. There are more nevi in areas of the body that have greater long-term exposure to the sun, such as the outer arm compared with the inner arm. Cells within the skin called melanocytes produce a pigment named melanin. This pigment is what gives melanocytic nevi a tan to dark brown color. Melanin is also responsible for overall skin color and the darkening seen with a sun tan.",
