Abstract

Keratoacanthoma is usually a rapidly growing benign tumor of the hair follicles, that is, they originate from pilo-sebaceous glands. Its usual presentation is a firm, cone shaped nodule with a central crator and usually affects the middle aged population and the elederly. It may be best viewed as an aborted malignancy that only rarely progresses into invasive SCC. The risk for SCC development is attributes to genotypic, phenotypic, as well as environmental factors. UV Rays is classified by the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) as a class I carcinogen, sufficient for initiation, promotion, and progression AK into squamous carcinogenesis of the skin,14 and is generally the most important environmental risk factor for SCC. Management includes Surgical excision, preferably microscopically controlled surgery (Mohs surgery).Topical therapeutic treatments such as topical imiquimod, topical or intra-lesional 5-fluoruracil, Cryotherapy, and photodynamic therapy for SCC have been reported.
