| Bowen's d. |
a squamous cell carcinoma in situ, often due to prolonged exposure to arsenic; it occurs as one or more sharply defined, slightly thickened, erythematous, scaly plaques, usually on sun-exposed areas of skin in older white males but sometimes found on mucous membranes. The corresponding lesion on the glans penis is termed erythroplasia of Queyrat. Called also Bowen's precancerous dermatosis and precancerous dermatitis.
