Seborrheic keratosis in an adolescent: A rare presentation.

Seborrheic keratosis is a common benign epidermal lesion that typically occurs in the elderly population. Its occurrence in childhood and adolescence is rare and can pose a diagnostic challenge for clinicians and dermatopathologists. We report a case of a 16-year-old boy with multiple brown, black oval-shaped stuck-on lesions on his face, which were diagnosed as seborrheic keratosis based on histological findings. The patient had no significant medical history or family history of seborrheic keratosis. In this report, we discuss the differential diagnoses of seborrheic keratosis-like lesions in childhood and adolescence and explain why they were not compatible with our case. We also review the available treatment options. Our case emphasizes the need for dermatologists to consider seborrheic keratosis in the differential diagnosis of cutaneous lesions in young patients.
