[Verrucous malignant melanoma (spontaneous regression and simultaneous development of a secondary tumor)].

A 59 years old woman who was admitted in our hospital had developed two primary melanomas at the lower leg during an interval of 15 years. The histologic diagnosis was a verrucous lentino maligna melanoma for both tumors. The differentiation from superficial spreading melanoma may be difficult. Interestingly enough, in our patient the formation of the new primary melanoma occurred simultaneously with the regression of the older one. In consequence, it seems that regression of a melanoma may not prevent from progression of the disease or from formation of a new primary melanoma.

[Malignant granular cell tumor].

A case of malignant granular cell tumor is reported. A 44-year-old male patient presented a tumor starting from the left side of the neck which finally extended shoulder and left thoracic region. Despite repeated gammatron radiations and cytostatic therapy death occurred three years after the discovery of the primary tumor due to spreading of metastases into the cervical spinal cord, para-aortic lymph nodes, lungs, kidney and liver. The differential diagnosis of the morphological substrate is discussed and the preference of the termination introduced by Stout and Lattes is established.

[Primary multiple malignant melanomas of unusually long duration].

In 1975, 117 patients with malignant melanoma attented the Department of Dermatology at the University of Cologne, and three of these had had a superficial spreading melanoma (SSM) over a long period-one patient most probably for more than 25 years. With these patients another primary malignant melanoma developed, though not a metastasis. It appears that SSM gives no protection against other melanomas of the superficial or nodular type. In comparison, a 70-year-old patient had had a pigmented tumour for about 40 years and this suddenly spread five years ago; however, at least some of the metastases regressed to form vitiligo-like lesions surrounding deposits of melanin in macrophages. In this case the spontaneous regression did not protect the patient against new metastases in the lymph nodes and probably in the liver as well.
