The main purpose of this paper is to explain the development of the thought and the most updated considerations about the correlations between nevi and melanoma, through a critical review in chronological order of the scientific publications about it since 1969. This leads to the discussion, correction and recovery of thoughts that had been left. In fact we know that a kind of correlation exists but, until now, has not been completely explained.
