      If the pathology says no architecture atypia is present, is that meaning the mole is completely benign?
      Final diagnosis was benign compound nevus, but I don’t know if it was atypical or not. Also to mention that the mole was very dark and scary. Could misdiagnosis happen???

          I’ve conveniced myself that it’ll come as malignant cz of how horrible it was. Should I ask for second opinion?

            If there is no cellular or architectural atypia, there is no chance it is melanoma.  I seriously doubt someone would make that big a mistake.  Dont  invent problems that don't exist.
