Abstract:
We report a case of Bowen's disease in a 63-year-old male patient who presented with a 15x10cm-sized, large erythematous, scaly plaque on his back. Histopathologic examination revealed Bowen's disease. The skin lesion was improved after treatment with modified phenol peeling. Modified phenol peeling of Bowen's disease can be an alternative method of therapy for those lesions which are too large for excision and primary closure.
