Elevated/Pink-Clear/Yellow










FIGURE 18.1 Color wheel: elevated/pink clear/yellow.



Take a look at the color wheel in Figure 18.1.

Here we will be looking at two benign lesions: sebaceous hyperplasia and milia/acne.

Both of these lesions have been confused with basal cell carcinoma. This chapter will help you learn how to never confuse them again!


Sebaceous Hyperplasia



Examples

Figure 18.2 reminds us of the patterns that we see with sebaceous hyperplasia. Clinically, these elevated, pink or clear lesions have a yellow-white lobular dermoscopic pattern. These lobular structures can look like popcorn, with serpentine radial vessels or crown vessels and central dell.

Figures 18.3 and 18.4 are examples of clinically elevated, pink or skin-colored lesions (Figure 18.3A-D) with a yellow-white dermoscopic pattern (Figure 18.4A-D). You can appreciate the yellow-white lobular popcorn pattern, with the radial serpentine vessels in all four lesions. Figures A, B, and C also have the central dell.
