Acquired digital fibrokeratoma.
Acquired digital fibrokeratomas are benign growths that usually occur on the fingers. These growths have a characteristic clinical and histopathologic appearance and may be easily recognized and treated by family physicians. It is important not to confuse these lesions with other common, possibly malignant, clinical entities. Treatment involves shave excision under local anesthesia.
