Current therapies for actinic keratosis
International Journal of Dermatology, 2020 AbstractActinic keratosis (AK) is a very common skin disease caused by chronic sun damage, which in 75% of cases arises on chronically sun‐exposed areas, such as face, scalp, neck, hands, and forearms. AKs must be considered an early squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) for their probable progression into invasive SCC.

Pharmacotherapy of actinic keratosis
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2009Actinic keratosis (AK) represents the initial intraepidermal manifestation of abnormal keratinocyte proliferation with the potential of progression to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). When in limited numbers, clinically visible AKs are treated individually with ablative and/or surgical procedures (lesion-directed treatment), while multiple and sublinical

Hypertrophic actinic keratosis
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1982A common hypertrophic variant of actinic keratosis is presented. Bland cytologic features are dominant, and the pattern varies markedly from that of other actinic keratoses. Histologic and topographic evidence suggests that the hypertrophic changes are induced by the trauma of chronic rubbing.

PROLIFERATIVE ACTINIC KERATOSIS
International Journal of Dermatology, 1994Abstract Background. Solar/actìnic keratoses (AKS) are premalignant lesions, usually less than 1 cm in diameter, that appear on chronically sun‐damaged skin. Methods. We describe four patients with a form of AK that enlarged and recurred despite standard treatment.

Dermoscopic features of actinic keratosis
JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, 2007SummaryActinic keratosis (AK) is a keratinocytic neoplasm that typically develops on sun‐damaged skin of elderly individuals. Only a few reports so far have described the dermoscopic diagnostic features of AK, mainly focusing on facial non‐pigmented AKs.

Actinic Keratosis and Telangiectasia
Archives of Dermatology, 1972To the Editor.— I recently saw a 60-year-old patient with rufous complexion who was covered with actinic keratosis and telangiectasia about his face, neck, and upper part of his chest. The history included a number of years of arsenic medication in 1936 for the treatment of amebiasis and radioactive thorium to his face in 1962 for actinic keratosis ...

TREATMENT OF ACTINIC KERATOSIS
Archives of Dermatology, 1970To the Editor.— It is well known that patients who use fluorouracil topically may get an intensification of the reaction when they are exposed to sunlight. To take advantage of this, a series of 100 patients were given an erythema dose of ultraviolet light to the right half of the face on the day prior to using topical 1% fluorouracil in Propylene ...

Tenascin expression in actinic keratosis
Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, 2006Background: Tenascin is an extracellular matrix protein frequently expressed around neoplastic and non‐neoplastic lesions of the skin. Actinic keratoses (AKs) are intraepidermal neoplastic lesions of the sun‐exposed skin. They are classified according to the extension of dysplasia in four stages; they also present different histological varieties ...

Pharmacotherapy of actinic keratosis: an update
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2012Actinic keratosis (AK) represents the initial intraepidermal manifestation of abnormal keratinocyte proliferation, with the potential of progression to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Few visible AKs lead to the use of lesion-directed treatments, including ablative and/or surgical procedures.

In some respects actinic keratosis is the most common and best-known pathology in dermatology. Being such an ordinary pathology, actinic keratosis gives nevertheless insight into an extraordinary number of important biological and clinical processes. Actinic keratoses are found in significant numbers on the sun-exposed skin of Caucasians, especially ...
