Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second-most-prevalent malignancy in humans. A delayed diagnosis of cSCC leads to heightened invasiveness and positive surgical margins. Bowen's disease (BD) represents an early form of cSCC and presents as a small erythematous, photo-distributed, psoriasiform plaque. Although certain dermoscopy features in BD are quite characteristic, histopathology remains the gold standard for diagnosis and provides a severity-scoring system that assists in guiding appropriate treatment strategies. The classification of precancerous lesions of the vulva and penis has undergone multifarious transformations due to variations in clinical and histopathological characteristics. Presently, erythroplasia of Queyrat is categorized as a clinical variant of penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN). The diagnoses of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) and PeIN present significant challenges and typically necessitate one or more biopsies, potentially guided by dermoscopy. Aceto-white testing demonstrates a notably high negative predictive value for genital precancerous lesions. Histopathological examination represents the gold-standard diagnosis in VIN and PeIN, while p16 and p53 immunostainings alongside HPV testing provide crucial diagnostic clues. The histopathologic features, degree of differentiation, and associations with lichen planus, lichen sclerosus, and HPV guide the selection of conservative treatments or surgical excision.
