Porokeratosis arising in a burn scar

M P Nova et al. J Am Acad Dermatol. 1991 Aug.

Abstract

A histologically verified porokeratosis arose in a burn scar on the back of a 47-year-old man. This phenomenon has not been previously reported. We discuss the literature on porokeratosis, the relation between epidermal and dermal injury, and the genesis of this lesion.
