ABSTRACT
CME Dermatology 24/Answers Porokeratosis Abstract. Porokeratoses are a heterogeneous group of cornification disorders with the characteristic histological feature of the cornoid lamellae in the area of the marginal ridge. It is a rare but characteristic disease that occurs primarily in adulthood. Men are slightly more likely to be affected. The etiopathogenesis that leads to the transformation of the keratinocytes remains unclear; associations with genetic mutations and trigger factors such as UV rays and immunosuppression were observed. Due to the risk of malignant degeneration, consistent sun protection and regular clinical controls should take place. Cryotherapy, ablative laser therapy, curettage, photodynamic therapy or topical application of fluorouracil (5-FU), imiquimod and retinoids can be used to treat itchy, painful or cosmetically disturbing porokeratoses, depending on the location and severity.
