Actinic keratoses (AKs) are defined as keratotic macules, papules, or plaques with
superficial scale on a red base, occurring on areas extensively damaged by sunlight. They
should be classified as in situ squamous cell carcinomas (SCC)[1, 2]. Histopathologically, an
intraepidermal proliferation of atypical keratinocytes can be observed.
