We report a case of ADFK over the digitof the right hand presenting as a finger-like growth; the base ofthe lesion showed a collarette of scales. The lesion was excisedwith ablative CO2 laser. The histopathology was typical, showinghyperkeratosis and acanthosis. The core of the lesion had abundantcollagen fibers perpendicular to the long axis of the epithelium.There was good healing with minimal scarring; the patient wasfollowed up, and no recurrence was reported more than oneyear later. ADFK is a relatively rare tumor, with less than 150cases reported worldwide; we present a concise review of thepublished ADFK cases with their clinical and histopathologicalcharacteristics. To the best of our knowledge, this is the seventhsuch case to be reported from India. %U https://www.iranjd.ir/article_164163_a48c6d00cfd670abb2ea39c82ca93dbe.pdf
