Pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma (PEM) is an uncommon, recently described melanocytic lesion. There is a high rate of regional metastases, but limited evidence of distant metastases, an indolent clinical course and favorable outcome. The article presents a clinical case of PEM with aggressive behavior and distant metastases in patient with Fanconi Anemia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
