Bowenoid papulosis.

Abstract:

:Bowenoid papulosis usually appears as small papules on the penis or vulva. Histologically, these lesions display the atypia of Bowen's disease (squamous cell carcinoma in situ). Bowenoid papulosis is now considered to be a sexually transmitted disease, probably caused by human papillomavirus type 16. Malignant transformation has been documented. Female sexual partners of men with this disease may be at increased risk of cervical cancer.
