Abstract

Due to venous insufficiency, a vascular ulcer frequently occurs with the progression of stasis dermatitis. Achromic melanoma, a rare form of pigmentless melanoma frequently located on the sole of the foot, is often and easily confused with a typical wound. Diagnosis of ulcerated achromic melanoma is thus often delayed and associated with a poor prognosis.
