Abstract

Bowens disease is a rare condition, considered a precursor to squamous cell carcinoma. Because of its similarity to several other skin conditions, accurate diagnosis can be challenging. There are multiple risk factors and several treatment options. This article has hoped to give an overview of risk factors, signs and symptoms, treatment, and complications with the aim of giving nurses and non-medical prescribers increased confidence in recognising this disease. Bowen's disease is a rare condition thought to affect approximately 15 per 100,000 people in the UK each year. Because of the similarity with other skin conditions, diagnosis can be challenging for clinicians.
