Nevus‐associated melanoma (NAM) has been regarded as a distinct biological entity from de‐novo melanoma (DNM); however, static dermoscopy often fails in differentiating these entities.

We aimed to define main independent factors associated with NAM diagnosis and those influencing follow‐up time in a population of melanomas excised at follow‐up.
