The “Abtropfung” theory that nevi develop through the migration of nevus cells from the epidermis to the dermis prevailed for almost a century until the “Hochsteigerung” theory postulated the reverse pattern of migration.

From the reviews:“The purpose is to provide an update on how nevi are formed, their evolution, and factors that influence their development. I haven’t read any other book that addresses this subject in this depth. The authors do a superb job. … This should be required reading for all dermatology residents and dermatologists out of training.” (Patricia Wong, Doody’s Book Reviews, June, 2013)
