Seborrheic keratosis is one of the most common skin tumors. Because this tumor is benign, treatment is not mandatory. However, the lesions are often removed especially for cosmetic reasons. Despite its frequency, many aspects of seborrheic keratosis remain elusive. In the last years new molecular genetic insights into seborrheic keratoses have been gained. The current knowledge about seborrheic keratosis with respect to epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapy is summarized.

Seborrheic keratoses are very common benign epidermal tumors that includes several aetiological factors and the participation of human papilloma virus (HPV) is being discussed.
Dermoscopy of inflamed seborrheic keratosis: A great mimic of malignancy
Clinical and dermoscopic recognition of seborrheic keratoses (SKs) is often straightforward, and biopsy might not be required. However, inflamed SKs (iSKs) can pose a diagnostic challenge.…

Two cases of seborrheic keratosis of the external ear canal: involvement of PIK3CA and FGFR3 genes
TLDR
Etiological risk factors involved in SK such as exposure to human papillomavirus (HPV) and ultraviolet (UV) light are established but must still be confirmed.
Giant seborrheic keratoses on penis.
TLDR
It is suggested that HPVs can be considered as etiologic factor in creation of seborrheic keratosis, which is very common on sun-exposed skin, but they are rare in the genital area, such as on the shaft of penis.
Clinical analysis of seborrheic keratoses in the ear: a retrospective study and literature review
TLDR
Otolaryngologists should consider a complete removal and histological examination of seborrheic keratoses, which are benign skin tumors; however, the lesions can recur after removal.
Bowenoid transformation in seborrheic keratosis: A retrospective analysis of 429 patients
TLDR
Generally, although the association between seborrheic keratosis and skin malignancy appears to be accidental, it must always be in mind that histopathologic examination of all seborRheic Keratosis should be considered, especially when sebor rheickeratosis has atypical clinical manifestations.

TLDR
Describing epidermal/dermal, infectious, pigmented, and malignant cutaneous lesions that are commonly encountered in practice include the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical course, and management options for each type of lesion.
Basaloid tumors arising from seborrheic keratosis: Malignant basal cell carcinoma or benign basaloid follicular hamartomatous proliferation?
Basaloid tumors arising from seborrheic keratosis (SK) that resembled basal cell carcinoma (BCC) were infrequently observed in our patients. They also exhibited morphologic features similar to those…
