Lentigomalignamelanoma is a subtype of invasive melanoma, located in photodamaged skin, particularly of the face and neck. It appears as an ill- defined macula, of heterogeneous color, ranging from brown to black. The amelanotic variant is infrequent in any of the cutaneous melanoma subtypes. We report the case of a 63-year-old woman with amelanoticlentigomaligna melanoma, located in her lower right limb.
