dc.description.abstractA Keratoacanthoma is a dome-shaped, pink-colored benign skin tumor, around 1–2 cm in height with a central crater filled withkeratinous plaque, that is assumed to be caused by the exposure of hair follicles to sunlight. The most prominent discussion onKeratoacanthoma is whether it is malignant or benign, and this discussion is challenging for a clinician and absorbing for a researcher,asit can play a key role in understanding cancer regression. Keratoacanthomas resemble squamous cell carcinomas, both clinically andhistologically and in the resulting confusion, Keratoacanthoma can be defined as a sheep in wolf’s clothing, but can also be regarded asthe wolf in the sheep’s clothing, as there is an emerging view that it could be the precursor to squamous cell carcinomas. A total orpartial excision of the biopsy material, including subcutaneous fat tissue, or a fusiform partial excision, including the center and bothsides along the entire course of the lesion, to represent the whole lesion. In addition, the excised biopsy material should include at least2 mm of intact skin on both sides.
