Squamous Cell Carcinoma Developing within Lesions of Disseminated Superficial Actinic Porokeratosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis (DSAP) consists of multiple annular, hyperkeratotic lesions that have a bilateral distribution on sun-exposed areas, particularly the extremities. DSAPs have a wider distribution than porokeratosis of Mibelli and usually develop during the 3rd or 4th decade of life. Squamous cell carcinoma that arises in the classical type of porokeratosis of Mibelli is well-documented, but there are only a few reports of squamous cell carcinoma in DSAP. Here, we describe a 62-year-old man with DSAP who developed squamous cell carcinoma on his right forearm.

Recipients of solid organ transplants (RSOT) have a highly increased risk for developing cutaneous premalignant and malignant lesions, favored by the lifelong immunosuppression. Vascularized composite tissue allografts (VCA) have been introduced recently, and relevant data are sparse. Two patients with skin cancers (one with basal cell carcinoma and one with squamous cell carcinomas) have been ...

Porokeratoses are a group of hereditary or acquired disorders characterized by annular lesions with an atrophic center and a prominent peripheral ridge. Pathologically, porokeratosis is characterized by the presence of abnormal clones of keratinocytes that form a column of parakeratotic cells, called the cornoid lamella. Fifteen percent of patients of disseminated superficial actinic porokerato...

Although lichen planus and vitiligo are common skin disorders, their association with two other uncommon diseases, i.e. lichen sclerosus et atrophicus and disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis, seems to be a very rare occurrence. We report herein a 70-year-old man who developed all of these four skin disorders simultaneously.
