Benign lichenoid keratosis: an off-center fold case
نویسندگان
چکیده
This off-center fold case depicts the difficult differential diagnosis for benign lichenoid keratosis. It is challenging to diagnosis this benign lesion through clinical exam, dermoscopy, and even dermatopathology. Given its similar appearance to regressed melanoma, it is important to be cognizant of both and up to date on the dermatopathology clues.

BACKGROUND Benign lichenoid keratosis (BLK, LPLK) is often misdiagnosed clinically as superficial basal-cell carcinoma (BCC), especially when occurring on the trunk. However, BCCs undergoing regression may be associated with a lichenoid interface dermatitis that may be misinterpreted as BLK in histopathologic sections. METHODS In order to assess the frequency of remnants of BCC in lesions int...

متن کاملAnatomic Pathology / LICHENOID TISSUE REACTION IN MALIGNANT MELANOMA
Lichenoid tissue reactions can occur in malignant melanoma and may cause partial regression of the lesion. We studied a series of melanomas to determine how frequently lichenoid tissue reaction obscures the diagnosis of malignant melanoma. We retrospectively reviewed 342 cases of invasive malignant melanoma and melanoma in situ from the head, neck, chest, and back. Of the 342 cases, 23 (6.7%) h...
