ABSTRACT

Primary melanocytic tumours of the uterine cervix are rare. These include blue nevi and malignant melanoma. Blue nevi are benign melanocytic lesions which occur as incidental finding. Primary cervical melanomas are rare mucosal melanomas with aggressive behaviour. In small biopsies, they can mimic poorly differentiated carcinomas. Here we present the cases of melanocytic tumours reported from our institute during the last 6 years
