Abstract:
Acral fibrokeratoma, more often called acquired digital fibrokeratoma, is a firm hyperkeratotic horn-like projection of skin surrounded by a slightly elevated epidermial collarette. Most frequently they appear on the finger of adult man. Authors report two cases, one developed on the palm and the other on the ankle. Because of the rarity of these lesions and their even more unusual location, these case were deemed worthy of report.
