    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Bowen's disease, or squamous cell carcinoma in situ, is a neoplastic condition.
    • Cutaneous manifestations of Bowen's disease can occur on various body parts.
    • Diagnosis typically relies on histopathological examination.

    Observation:

    • This report details four cases of Bowen's disease affecting the finger.
    • Three of these cases were treated within the last two years.
    • The lesions presented as persistent, scaly, and/or crusted finger abnormalities.

    Findings:

    • Bowen's disease is a treatable condition when identified.
    • The study highlights the occurrence of Bowen's disease on the finger.
    • The frequency of digital Bowen's disease might be underestimated in existing literature.

    Implications:

    • Clinicians should include Bowen's disease in the differential diagnosis for persistent finger lesions.
    • Increased awareness may lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment of digital Bowen's disease.
    • Further research is warranted to determine the true prevalence of Bowen's disease on the fingers.
