- Abstract
Collision tumor is defined as the coincidence in time and space, involving two o more kinds of tumors. Recognizing these tumors by only physical examination is often difficult and could lead to pitfalls in diagnosis, usually when these are pigmented lesions. Four cases of compound tumors with clinical, and dermoscopic assessment are presented. Dermoscopy could be very useful to diagnose these so confusing lesions. A review of literature is presented.
