Abstract
Clinicopathologic details of an atypical Spitz nevus are reported. A m etastasis to a single ipsilateral lymph node is documented. Cytogeneti c analysis of the metastatic lesion revealed a clonal chromosomal abno rmality, add(6)(q12 similar to 13), previously noted in cases of malig nant melanoma.
