简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and risk of adverse events of electrocautery versus 532 nm Q-switched neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd:YAG) laser for the treatment of flat seborrheic keratoses.
This study is a pilot study designed to determine feasibility of these procedures.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in lesion texture from baseline to week 18
时间窗: Baseline and 18 weeks
Blinded photo raters will the lesion texture on a scale of -50 (most worsening relative to baseline) to +50 (most improvement relative to baseline) for both treatments.
Change in Pigmentation from baseline to week 18
时间窗: Baseline and 18 weeks
Blinded photo raters will the lesion pigmentation on a scale of -50 (most hypopigmented relative to baseline) to +50 (most hyperpigmented relative to baseline) for both treatments.
