Hypertrophic actinic keratosis. A 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.
Actinic keratosis is a skin lesion. It looks like rough or scaly skin in a small patch. It is small and most often develops on skin that has had lots of ultraviolet damage â whether from the sun, tanning bed, etc. It may look bumpy and wart-like and be of various colors including pink, red, tan or brown.
