Keratoacanthoma and Keratoacanthoma-Like Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Differential diagnosis between keratoacanthoma (KA) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is difficult due to their similarities. The mechanisms that drive their distinct biological behavior are poorly understood. To investigate whether the assessment of microvessel density (MVD) could be helpful in KA and SCC differential diagnosis and to gain insight into the pathogenesis of KA-like neoplasms, we...

متن کاملDifferences between keratoacanthoma and squamous cell carcinoma using TGF-alpha.
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and keratoacanthoma (KA) are skin neoplasms of epithelial origin. In contrast to clearly malignant skin neoplasm SCC, KA is an unusual cutaneous neoplasm with a tendency to regression. The distinction between these two neoplasms, on histological grounds only, is still a challenge. In order to investigate further and to assess the possible differences in transformin...
متن کاملDermoscopic characteristics of nodular squamous cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma
BACKGROUND Nodular squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and keratoacanthoma (KA) may mimic a variety of other benign and malignant non-pigmented nodules. OBJECTIVES To analyze the dermoscopic characteristics of nodular SCC and KA.

متن کاملPenis keratoacanthoma transforming into squamous cell carcinoma: a rare case.
Keratoacanthoma is variously regarded as a benign epithelial tumor, characterized by a rapid-growing and solitary flesh-colored nodule with a central keratin plug on the sun-exposed skin. Under certain circumstances, it can transform into squamous cell carcinoma. In this paper, we present a case of a 50-year-old man with a 2.5 × 3 × 2.2 cm mass on his penis stub-end. The patient was treat with ...
