Bowen’s disease of the penile shaft presenting as a pigmented macule: dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy and histopathological correlation

Abstract: The penile localization of pigmented Bowen’s disease has been rarely reported and has been mostly related to human papillomavirus infection. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent progression to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. However, diagnosis can be challenging because it may be difficult to distinguish from melanoma, even using dermoscopy. Reflectance confocal microscopy may be useful in suggesting the bedside diagnosis before the histopathological confirmation. A case of penile pigmented… Show more

“…Superficial basal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and solar keratosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of BD. 20 The atypical cells in BD are characterized by the involvement of the outer root sheath of the hair follicle, which could differentiate BD from solar keratosis. 16 Despite certain similarities between Bowen’s disease and Paget’s disease, 6 , 8 there are differences in the clinical presentation, disease progression, distribution, and histopathological characteristics between the two conditions ( Table 2 ).…”

“…Кроме того, риск возникновения болезни Боуэна повышается у онкологических пациентов, получающих лучевую терапию [10]. Ряд исследований показывает, что болезнь Боуэна является следствием чрезмерного воздействия инсоляции [11,12]. Показано, что юношеская мужская кожа (особенно у тех, кто работает на открытом воздухе) более склонна к этому типу заболевания по сравнению с женской.…”

“…Наиболее распространенными локализациями гигантского варианта болезни Боуэна являются кожа живота и боковые поверхности туловища. Это, как правило, закрытые участки кожного покрова, не подверженные воздействию инсоляции [10,11]. В литературе описаны единичные случаи возникновения гигантского варианта болезни Боуэна на лице, имеющие самый короткий анамнез: двухлетнюю продолжительность заболевания [20].…”
