Abstract

This is a comment on a network meta-analysis that evaluated the ranking of treatments for actinic keratosis outside the head and neck. The results of a limited number of heterogeneous studies contrast with the results of studies in the head and neck area. The extent to which these results can be generalized to larger treatment fields or areas with extensive field cancerization is uncertain.
