Abstract
Acquired digital fibrokeratomas are benign growths that usually occur
on the fingers. These growths have a characteristic clinical and histo
pathologic appearance and may be easily recognized and treated by fami
ly physicians. It is important not to confuse these lesions with other
common, possibly malignant, clinical entities. Treatment involves sha
ve excision under local anesthsia.
