Abstract:
Acquired digital fibrokeratoma is an uncommon, solitary, round, firm, more or less hyperkeratotic projection, most frequently situated on fingers or toes but occasionally on the other locations. It arises out of a collarette of slightly raised skin and may have slight or great resemblance to a rudimentary supernumerary digit or may be mistaken for some other more ordinary condition such as an odd cutareous horn. We experienced a case of acquired digital fibrokeratoma on the right second finger in a 25-year-old male. We treated it with total excision.
