Abstract
Intraoral melanoacanthoma is a rare, reactive pigmented lesion that is mostly seen in black individuals with a tendency to occur more frequently in younger females. The color of melanoacanthoma may vary from brown to black, and it is commonly seen as a solitary lesion in the buccal mucosa. This lesion requires no treatment, and no malignant potential has been observed to date. The clinical presentation of multifocal oral melanoacanthoma (MOMA) (the rate of growth and the recurrence) is usually diagnostic. On the other hand, solitary oral melanoacanthoma might be difficult to diagnose, and a biopsy should be performed and examined by a well-trained oral pathologist. Here, we report two cases of MOMA with an unusual location in one case.
