Abstrakt		Blue nevus is an uncommon pigmented tumor of dermal melanocytes that has traditionally been classified into common and cellular variant. It is usually a skin tumor in adulis but can become apparent in early childhood or even be present at birth. Malignant blue nevus is a rare melanocytic tumor of tlie skin arising from a preexisting cellular blue nevus. We report a multinodular blue nevus of the left ear in an I1-year-old girl who also had 2 intracranial melanocytic lesions. Differential dingnosis between metastases From malignant blue nevus and neurocutaneous melanosis is discussed.
