Close-up of Bowen's disease on the wrist of an eighty two year old female patient. This condition is an early form of skin cancer confined to the outer most layer of cells in the skin. It is thought to develop partly as a result of long-term sun exposure and is potentially malignant. The red scaly lesions are removed surgically or destroyed by freezing or cauterisation (heat treatment). | |
