Abstract
-
Acquired fibrokeratoma is a relatively rare, benign tumor which occurs most frequently on the fingers and toes. Because of the digital predilection, a term of digital fibrokeratoma has been frequently used. We herein present a case of acquired fibrokeratoma occuring on the lip, which is an unusual site for this lesion. A skin-colored and
pea-sized papule was found on the lip of a 25-year-old woman. Histopathologic examination revealed typical features of acquired fibrokeratoma.
