Melanozytäre Nävi und Melanomvorläufer

  • Chapter
Therapie der Hautkrankheiten

Zusammenfassung

Als melanozytäre Nävi werden gutartige Neubildungen der Melanozyten bezeichnet, einer Zellpopulation, die als spezifische Funktion die Pigmentsynthese insbesondere an Haut, Haaren und Augen aufweist. Das Pigmentzellsystem hat bei Menschen nur ein relativ kleines Volumen von ca. 1,5 cm3, etwa der Masse eines Stückes Würfelzucker. Das sich von den Pigmentzellen ableitende maligne Melanom ist allerdings für den allergrößten Teil der Sterblichkeit an Hautkrebs verantwortlich. Insofern kommt dem malignen Melanom sowie seinen Vorläuferläsionen als auch seinen Risikoindikatoren eine besondere Bedeutung im Rahmen der dermatologischen Onkologie zu.
