Intradermal melanocytic nevi are common, benign, pigmented skin tumors formed by proliferation of dermal melanocytes. A number of notable, uncommon changes may be observed in intradermal melanocytic nevi. In particular, their association with lymphatic invasion is an extremely rare phenomenon.

Compound Nevi are a sub-class of Common Acquired Melanocytic Nevi. Typically they are light tan to dark brown, dome shaped papules that are 1-10 mm in diameter. Compound Nevi are benign proliferations of melanocytes at the epidermal-dermal junction.
Atypical nevi, also known as dysplastic nevi, are benign acquired melanocytic neoplasms. Atypical nevi share some of the clinical features of melanoma, such as asymmetry, irregular borders, multiple colors, and diameter >5 mm (picture 1A). They occur sporadically or in a familial setting.
Melanocytic nevi are benign neoplasms or hamartomas composed of melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells that constitutively colonize the epidermis.

A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm.

The plural of nevus is nevi (nee-vye). A benign (not cancer) growth on the skin that is formed by a cluster of melanocytes (cells that make a substance called melanin, which gives color to skin and eyes). A mole is usually dark and may be raised from the skin.

Nevus (or naevus, plural nevi or naevi, from nævus, Latin for "birthmark") is the medical term for sharply-circumscribed [1] and chronic lesions of the skin. These lesions are commonly named birthmarks and moles. Nevi are benign by definition.
Nevi are benign by definition. Using the term nevus and nevi loosely, most physicians and dermatologists are actually referring to a variant of nevus called the "Melanocytic nevus", which are composed of melanocytes.
