Differential Diagnosis

• Actinic Keratosis
• Atopic Dermatitis
• Atypical Fibroxanthoma
• Bowenoid Papulosis
• Contact Dermatitis
• Erythroplasia of Queyrat
• Keratoacanthoma is a low-grade malignancy of the skin. It originates in the pilo-sebaceous glands, and is similar in clinical presentation and microscopic analysis to squamous cell carcinoma, except that it contains a central keratin plug. Statistically, it is less likely to become invasive than squamous cell carcinoma.
• Bowen's disease is a sunlight-induced skin disease, and is considered to be an early form of squamous cell carcinoma.
• Marjolin's ulcer is a type of squamous cell carcinoma that arises from a non-healing ulcer or burn wound.
• Melanoma
• Basal Cell Carcinoma
• Pyoderma gangrenosum
