| pigmented ameloblastoma | A benign neoplasm of neuroectodermal origin that most often involves the anterior maxilla of infants in the first year of life. It presents clinically as a rapidly growing blue-black lesion producing a destructive radiolucency; histologically, it is characterised by small round undifferentiated tumour cells interspersed with larger polyhedral melanin-producing cells arranged in an alveolar configuration. Synonym: melanoameloblastoma, pigmented ameloblastoma, pigmented epulis, progonoma of jaw, retinal anlage tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigmented dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans | An uncommon variant of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans containing heavily pigmented dendritic melanocytes scattered between spindle cells of the tumour. Synonym: Bednar tumour, storiform neurofibroma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigmented epulis | A benign neoplasm of neuroectodermal origin that most often involves the anterior maxilla of infants in the first year of life. It presents clinically as a rapidly growing blue-black lesion producing a destructive radiolucency; histologically, it is characterised by small round undifferentiated tumour cells interspersed with larger polyhedral melanin-producing cells arranged in an alveolar configuration. Synonym: melanoameloblastoma, pigmented ameloblastoma, pigmented epulis, progonoma of jaw, retinal anlage tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigmented keratic precipitates | Precipitate's that occur in eyes with brown irides or after prolonged inflammation. (05 Mar 2000) |

| pigmented purpuric lichenoid dermatosis | An eruption comprised of lichenoid papules variously pigmented from the haemosiderin of the associated purpura; found on the legs, usually in men over 40 years of age. Synonym: Gougerot and Blum disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pigmented retinal epithelium | Layer of unusual phagocytic epithelial cells lying below the photoreceptors of the vertebrate eye. The dorsal surface of the PRE cell is closely apposed to the ends of the rods and as discs are shed from the rod outer segment they are internalised and digested by the PRE. Do not have desmosomes or cytokeratins in some species. (18 Nov 1997) |
