My guess is that the mole was pre-cancerous and thus negative from the lab. I have seen dermatologists (I worked for two of them up north) who take a 'cautious waiting' treatment option. In other words, keep and eye on it every few months and then treat if necessary. They certainly didn't remove every irregular mole they saw.
