Bowen's Disease

Bowen’s disease is a squamous cell carcinoma in situ that commonly develops on the trunk, arms, or legs and has not spread beyond the top layer of skin. It seldom develops on the nipple. We report a patient who presented with Bowen’s disease of the nipple and had a concurrent breast cancer identified in the ipsilateral breast after careful examination. Histopathological examination of the surgical specimen after mastectomy confirmed the diagnoses.

A variety of cutaneous lesions can mimic melanoma, such as melanocytic nevi, lentigines, seborrheic keratosis, blue nevi, pigmented basal cell carcinomas and dermatofibromas. This report describes a rare clinical case of a female patient who presented a lesion on the left thigh, which was clinically and dermoscopically compatible with melanoma. The patient underwent excision of the lesion, and histopathology confirmed a diagnosis of pigmented Bowen’s disease. The purpose of this report is to draw attention to the fact that pigmented Bowen’s disease, a rare form of squamous cell carcinoma in situ, should also be considered as a differential diagnosis of malignant melanoma.
