Yes well done Vincenzo this is indeed desmoplastic melanoma (DM) and CLL (same patient as last week but this is 6 years on).

I too noticed the lymphoid infiltrate had changed!!! (easily missed when one is already concentrating on not missing DM).

Don't forget it's really common to see CLL as a second pathology in patient's in the elderly range and I love to put dual pathology in exams!!!
