Congenital melanocytic nevi are common benign lesions in neonates. Besides the risk of developing melanoma and neurocutaneus melanocitosis, congenital melanocytic nevus may be a source of psychological distress and family anxiety. The rate of complications correlates best with the size of the nevi. The management (observation and/or surgical removal) for a congenital melanocytic nevus requires individualization and a multidisciplinary approach. Surgical removal reduces the lesions, but it is impossible to remove all the nevus cells associated with giant nevi.
