From the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Youngs-town Hospital Association, Youngstown, Ohio.
The third case of melanosis of the exocervix reported in the English literature is presented. Discovery was incidental at surgery for unrelated findings. The pathogenesis of melanosis is unknown, but the lesion apparently is innocuous. Biopsy should distinguish this entity from other pigmented lesions of the cervix, eg, malignant melanoma and blue nevus.
