Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma |
|
usually asymptomatic | well-demarcated, scaly patch or plaque | hyperkeratotic, or ulcerative lesions | Lesions are often erythematous but can also be skin colored or pigmented. | Any cutaneous surface, including the head, neck, trunk, extremities, oral mucosa, shoulders, chest and back |
|
|
SCC in situ lesions tend to grow slowly, enlarging over the course of years | ||
Invasive squamous cell carcinoma | Lesions of invasive SCC are often asymptomatic but may be painful or pruritic. | White circles, keratin, blood spots, and white structureless zones | Well-differentiated lesions usually appear as indurated or firm, hyperkeratotic papules, plaques, or nodules | Poorly differentiated lesions are usually fleshy, soft, granulomatous papules or nodules that lack the hyperkeratosis that is often seen in well-differentiated lesions | Poorly differentiated tumors may have ulceration, hemorrhage, or areas of necrosis. | ||||||
Keratoacanthoma[1] | keratocytic epithelial tumors | White circles, keratin, blood spots, and white structureless zones | Initial lesion: small pink macule
Later: papular quality and eventually forms a circumscribed nodule. |
The periphery of the nodule tends to be skin-colored or mildly erythematous and may have accompanying telangiectasias | The center of the nodule typically demonstrates a prominent keratinous core. |
|
a history of rapid growth within weeks favors this diagnosis |
|
| ||
Muir-Torre | incidental detection of multiple lesions suspicious for sebaceous tumors during the skin examination may suggest the possibility of the Muir-Torre variant of Lynch syndrome | ||||||||||
Merkel cell carcinoma | Starts on areas of skin exposed to the sun | Single pink, red, or purple shiny bump | Painless | Blue-red, dome-shaped nodule | |||||||
Nodular malignant melanoma | Lump that has been rapidly growing over the past weeks | Cells proliferate downwards through the skin (vertical growth) |
| ||||||||
Amelanotic melanoma | Color usually pink, purple or normal skin color | Usually have an asymmetrical shape with an irregular border | Red, nonspecific lesion with slightly elevated borders |
| |||||||
Basal cell carcinoma | Coarse scale lesion | ||||||||||
Superficial basal cell carcinoma | Scaly patch | Erythematous lesion |
|
||||||||
Nodular basal cell carcinoma | Pearly papule with telangiectasias | ||||||||||
Cutaneous metastases of internal malignancy | Other sites lungs, liver, brain, skin, or bone. | The most frequent site of metastasis for cutaneous SCC is the regional lymph nodes; | |||||||||

Rhabdomyosarcoma | Bulging of the eye or a swollen eyelid | Develops in skeletal muscles usually | |||||||||
Actinic keratoses | Pain | Hyperkeratosis | Erythema | less pigmentation, and tend to be somewhat smaller in size. | |||||||
Prurigo nodules | Hard lesion | Itchy lumps | |||||||||
Paget disease | Eczema-like rash of the skin | Around the genital regions of males and females. | Similar to mammary paget disease | chronic | |||||||
Inflamed seborrheic keratosis | Waxy, "stuck on," often hyperkeratotic appearance | ||||||||||
Viral warts | Verrucous lesion | Caused by HPV | |||||||||
Pyogenic granuloma | Rapidly growing | Red, dome-shaped | Friable papule with a collarette of scale | ||||||||
Bowenoid papulosis | multiple, red- to brown-colored, small papules that |
| |||||||||
Nummular eczema | Itchy lesions | Coin shaped spots | Chronic condition | ||||||||

Usually on the nose, cheeks, and forehead | ||||||||
Allergic Contact Dermatitis | Itchy rash | Red rash | Not contagious | ||||||||
Atopic Dermatitis | Itchy rash | Fever | Red rash | Chronic and sometimes accompanied by asthma | |||||||

Anogenital | also known as giant condyloma acuminatum of Buschke-Loewenstein |
SCC in situ: Frequently, there is associated thickening of the epidermis (acanthosis), as well as hyperkeratosis and parakeratosis of the stratum corneum. In contrast to SCC in situ, actinic keratoses demonstrate only partial-thickness epidermal dysplasia.
