Lentigo solaris Images

Lentigo solaris: multiple, disseminated, a few millimetres to 0.5 centimetres in size, usually bizarrely configured, sharply defined, yellow-brown to dark brown spots on the forehead of a 72-year-old woman.

Lentigo solaris (solar lentigo): Light brown, sharply defined spot in the area of chronically UV-exposed facial skin.

Lentigo solaris (solar lentigo): a slow-growing, symptom-free, brown spot, which has been present for years, is a good 2.5 cm in size, sharply defined, with a velvety surface; conspicuous actinic elastosis of the unaffected cheek skin.

Lentigo solaris: bizarrely configured, brown-black spot; in the centre dark irregular part (see inlet); here, encircled transition to a lentigo maligna.

Lentigo solaris. detail enlargement: inhomogeneously coloured, light brown, sharply defined spot.

Lentigo solaris: brown, sharply bordered, smooth spot in the area of exposed skin areas (Lentigo solaris). 31-year-old, fair-skinned patient with intensive UV exposure during the past years of life. 1.8 x 1.8 cm measuring, sharply bordered, light brown spot with smooth surface.

Lentigo solaris: multiple, disseminated, a few millimetres to 1.5 centimetres in size, oval, roundish or bizarrely configured, sharply defined, yellowish brown to dark brown spots on the capillitium of a 68-year-old man with skin type I. Likewise there are isolated small actinic keratoses as well as alopecia androgenetica of the man in stage IV.

Lentigo solaris. detail enlargement: multiple, disseminated, a few millimetres up to 1.5 centimetres in size, oval, roundish or bizarrely configured, sharply defined, yellow-brown to dark brown spots on the capillitium of a 68-year-old man.

Solar lentignes: multiple, sharply defined stains of varying intensity in the area of the shoulders after chronic UV exposure

Lentiginosis as a result of years of excessive UV irradiation.

Lentiginosis as a result of years of excessive UV irradiation (detailed picture).

Lentiginosis: Solar lentiginosis caused by excessive UV exposure.

Lentigo solaris. irregular, button-like acanthosis with hyperpigmentation. orthokeratosis. pronounced actinic elastosis of the upper and middle (!) dermis.

Lentigo solaris. club-shaped acanthosis, significantly increased basal hyperpigmentation. orthokeratosis. severe actinic elastosis. normal structures of the collagenous connective tissue are no longer detectable, instead there are unstructured, "elastotic" masses which stain like elastic fibres.
