An Bras Dermatol. 2017 Jan-Feb;92(1):124-125. doi: 10.1590/abd1806-4841.20175381.

Abstract

Pigmented Bowen's disease is a rare subtype of Bowen's disease. Clinically it presents as a slow-growing, well-defined, hyperpigmented plaque, and should be included as a differential diagnosis of other pigmented lesions. The authors describe a challenging case of pigmented Bowen's disease with non-diagnostic dermscopy findings.
