Summary: Melanocytic lesions and other skin tumors represent one of the most frequent reasons for pediatric dermatology consultation. Although often benign, some of them may simulate melanoma, which can be a source of anxiety for parents and clinicians. Dermoscopy is a non-invasive and painless technique that increases the diagnostic accuracy for skin tumours, while avoiding unnecessary skin biopsies. In part I of this article, we highlight the importance of dermoscopy for the diagnosis of skin tumors in pediatric patients.

Apesar de serem frequentemente benignos, alguns podem simular o melanoma, sendo um motivo de ansiedade para os pais e clínicos. A dermatoscopia é uma técnica não-invasiva e indolor, que auxilia o diagnóstico de tumores cutâneos, poupando os doentes a biópsias desnecessárias.
