Article Synopsis
- Porokeratosis is a skin condition marked by the development of benign plaques, featuring a distinctive raised ridge and a flat center, which can lead to squamous cell carcinoma if untreated.
- The condition is mostly found on extremities, with rare occurrences on the lip, as highlighted by the report of three cases involving lip lesions.
- Treatment options included cryotherapy, which failed in two patients, while one patient was successfully treated with a shave biopsy, and another was lost to follow-up.
