Melanoma in situ (MIS),  defined as melanoma that is limited to the epidermis, contributes to a disproportionately high percentage of this rising incidence. Amelanotic melanoma presents as an erythematous macule or plaque and may initially be misdiagnosed as an inflammatory disorder. We report a case of amelonatic MIS raised on non-sun-exposed skin, inducing a lichen planus-like keratosis as inflammatory reaction, which clinically masked the melanoma.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;}, number={4}, journal={Acta Biomedica Atenei Parmensis}, author={Sisti, Andrea and Fallaha, Amgiad and Tassinari, Juri and Nisi, Giuseppe and Grimaldi, Luca and Eisendle, Klaus}, year={2018}, month={Jan.}, pages={496–498} }
