Abstract: We report on a child with a divided or kissing nevus of the penis with benign symmetric globular pattern on dermoscopic examination that evolved into a globular-reticular pattern after 1 year of follow-up. Divided nevus of the penis is exceedingly rare, with only four cases with dermoscopic findings reported to date. Dermoscopy seems to be useful when deciding on the most appropriate management of these cases.

“…Genital melanocytic naevi are mostly diagnosed during childhood and in younger adults with a prevalence of 3.5% and a M:F ratio of 1.3 : 1 27 . Several dermoscopy studies have been reported both in males and females, 16 ‐ 20,27–35 showing characteristics similar to naevi on other parts of the body. Most naevi have a single dermoscopic pattern (reticular, clod or structureless) or two patterns, but unusual‐looking naevi may have three patterns (multicomponent) 16,19 …”

“…No caso do pênis, a divisão ocorre entre a 11 a e 14 a semana gestacional, período de maturação da genitália externa, e no caso da pálpebra, em torno da 24 a semana. 4,6 Alguns padrões dermatoscópicos já foram relatados tanto em pacientes pediátricos quanto em adultos. Dentre eles, estão o padrão globular, o composto globular e reticular que apresenta rede pigmentar na periferia e glóbulos no centro, além do homogêneo com alguns glóbulos no centro, todos sugestivos de benignidade.…”

“…Dentre eles, estão o padrão globular, o composto globular e reticular que apresenta rede pigmentar na periferia e glóbulos no centro, além do homogêneo com alguns glóbulos no centro, todos sugestivos de benignidade. 4,5 É conhecido o baixo risco de evolução maligna. Até onde temos conhecimento na presente data, foram relatados apenas três casos envolvendo pálpebra e pênis.…”

“…Biker‐glove nevi also represent an example of divided or kissing nevi, in which nevi involve adjacent mobile body parts that appear as a single nevus when those body parts are juxtaposed. Classically described as CMN on the upper and lower eyelids that appear as one lesion when the lids are closed, divided CMN have also been described on the glans penis and adjacent foreskin and divided epidermal nevi on adjacent fingers . In all of these cases, the nevi are thought to initially arise as a single lesion at a time during embryogenesis before the two body parts separate.…”
