Actinic keratoses (AK) are common cutaneous lesions located in skin areas chronically exposed to UV radiation, with the potential of progressing into invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Since it is not possible to predict which […]
When the dermoscopy of squamous cell carcinoma and its precursors we differentiate among keratin-related, vascular, and pigment-related criteria. Non-pigmented actinic keratoses are characterized by the “strawberry pattern”. Pigmented actinic keratosis shows a significant dermatoscopic overlap […]
Pharmacological immunosuppression in solid organ transplant recipients is a significant risk factor in the occurrence of actinic keratosis (AK) and later progression into squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Treating clinical and preclinical lesions is mandatory in […]
Actinic keratosis (AK), a skin condition characterized by the proliferation of atypical keratinocytes, can progress to squamous cell carcinoma. Existing treatments are effective but cause high rates of local skin reactions. Tirbanibulin, one of the […]
