Abstract

Seborrheic keratosis is a common benign epithelial tumor which occurs primarily on sun-exposed area, and is occasionally associated with several malignant or premalignant conditions. Among these malignant or premalignant conditions, Bowen disease and basal cell carcinoma are common, but still it is not clear whether these malignancies arise incidentally with seborrheic keratosis or malignant transformation has occurred. We herein report a case of Bowen disease with seborrheic keratosis on the inguinal area where prior seborrheic keratosis had recurred after incomplete removal.
