Medical significance

For Ernst Kretschmer, a German psychiatrist, a “dysplastic” person feels out of the “normal” due to a certain deformity that makes them somewhat paranoid. He also points out her as an egocentric person, victim of complexes and distrust.

Kretschmer calls "dysplastic" people characterized by incomplete or overly developed any part of their body. The "dysplastic" type, without being properly a constitutional type, supposes the disproportion and the absence of harmony between the two corporal axes, presenting important imbalances between the different somatic structures.

If their morphology is characterized by an exaggerated proportion of a part of their body, the "dysplastic" usually suffers from stubborn paranoia or fixation on their own ideas or thoughts. According to the German neurologist, this type of deformation is associated with endocrine disorders and people with severe schizophrenia.

Other meaning

Atypical dysplastic nevus (a benign growth on the skin formed by clusters of melanocytes) atypical dysplastic (SNAD) refers to patients who have multiple particular melanocytic nevi, also known as “moles”, and with a high incidence of melanoma (a type of skin cancer which begins with melanocytes), especially of the malignant type.

The "dysplastic nevus" is a mole that looks different from a conventional mole, since they can have a different color, size and different borders. The surface of these is smooth, barely scaly and its edge is irregular, so it sometimes fades with the around the skin.

Most of these do not turn into melanoma, but remain stable over the years. However, some researchers assure that the possibility of them going to this state is up to 10 times higher in people who have more than five dysplastic nevi than in those who do not have any..

On the other hand, people who suffer from the mole syndrome present new multiple dysplastics that bloom randomly distributed in specific areas of the body, especially on the back. These are believed to make their first appearance during puberty..

When it is called "atypical dysplastic" is when it is necessary to pay attention to its formation, so it is first necessary to consult a dermatologist or dermatologist for examination. There is also a classification for these.

- Those in Group A, called “sporadic dysplastic nevus”, when a relative has it without a history of melanoma.

- Those of B, “familial dysplastic nevus” and that two or more members of the clan have it, also with melanoma

- Those in Group C, called “familial dysplastic nevus and melanoma”, with a relative who has it.

- Those in Group D1, when there are more than two relatives with “dysplastic nevus” but only one has melanoma

- Those in Group D2, where two or more relatives live with the type with melanoma.

It is very important for individuals suffering from dysplastic nevi to protect their skin from constant exposure to the sun or from burns..

In fact, many doctors recommend that these people have a medical check-up once a month, especially if they notice that it changes in color, size, shape or texture or if the skin on the surface becomes dry, bleeds or itches.
