Environmental factors play an important role in preserving the integrity of the skin. The changes can occur to
components and ultrastructure of the skin due to genetic factors, predisposing environmental factors, and favored by
the emergence of skin pathology. In this context, the present study refers to the normal structural appearance of the
skin and presents comparative, characteristic appearances of melanocytic nevi. Such reviews are important since the
pathology of melanocytic nevi is occurring at an increased frequency.
Key words:
