title: Lymphatic invasion in pigmented nevi.
abstract: All 124 pigmented nevi registered at the Canadian Tumour Reference Centre between July 1958 and May 1969 were reviewed. Nevus cells invading endothelial lined spaces were observed in serial sections from five cases. The significance of this finding is discussed in relation to published reports of the presence of nevus cells in lymph nodes.
