Rapidly-growing squamous cell carcinoma shortly after treatment with ingenol mebutate for actinic keratoses: report of two cases.
Actinic keratoses (AKs) are defined as cutaneous areas of atypical squamous transformation that are regarded as an early step in the continuum of alterations leading from normal skin to invasive and metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). AKs are classified as precancerous lesions by some authors and in situ SCC by others. The rate of evolution of a given AK to an invasive SCC has been estimated as 0·075-0·096% per lesion per year. These rates are similar to those estimated for gynaecological intraepithelial neoplasia. We describe two cases of SCC with rapid onset that developed after the application of ingenol mebutate gel for the treatment of AKs.

Effect of Field Treatment of Actinic Keratosis With Ingenol Mebutate Gel on the Identification of Lesions for Biopsy.
Actinic keratoses (AKs) are premalignant skin lesions caused by cumulative ultraviolet-light exposure that may progress to invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). As the clinical presentation of AKs varies widely, only a histopathologic analysis of a biopsied sample can eliminate or confirm a diagnosis of invasive SCC. Reducing the burden of AK with a combination of lesion-directed and field-directed treatments may help to identify persistent, suspicious lesions that require further evaluation. We present 10 cases of SCC that were identified and histologically confirmed in 7 patients after complete or substantial clearance of AKs by sequential treatment of sun-damaged skin with cryosurgery and ingenol mebutate.
