title: Bowen Disease over photoprotected site in an Indian male.
abstract: Bowen Disease is squamous cell carcinoma in situ in which the basement membrane is intact on histopathology. Lesions are usually solitary but may be multiple in 10-20 percent of cases. About three-quarters of these lesions are situated on the lower limb. It typically presents as an erythematous enlarging plaque having irregular borders with scaling and crusting. Our patient presented with a lesion on the chest that was not sun exposed thus leading to a diagnostic dilemma.
