      Shave biopsy done on skin near elbow. Was a brown/black mole. Came back as "severely atypical" so we're getting all of it removed probably with some skin around it. When leaving we asked for a copy of the pathology report which says: "Compound Dyplastic Nevus With Focal Severe Atypia" and "the biopsy shows a compound nevis with architectural disorder and focal pagetoid spread with cytologic atypia" and that the case was reviewed at the Dermatopathology Consensus Conference.

      Below that it says how the specimen was received (formalin-containing bottle etc) and states: 

      "Clinical Disgnosis: AML"

       

      thanks !
