Pigmented Bowen disease (pBD) is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma in situ. Sometimes it can show clinical and dermoscopic features that are seen in other pigmented lesions of the skin and mucosa, making the diagnosis difficult. We report six cases of pBD occurring on the anogenital area, and discuss the importance of dermoscopy for improving the diagnostic accuracy in pBD.

Abstract
Pigmented Bowen disease (pBD) is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma in situ. Sometimes it can show clinical and dermoscopic features that are seen in other pigmented lesions of the skin and mucosa, making the diagnosis difficult. We report six cases of pBD occurring on the anogenital area, and discuss the importance of dermoscopy for improving the diagnostic accuracy in pBD.File in questo prodotto:
