Cutaneous horns are conical, circumscribed protuberances formed by densely layered keratin. These lesions originate from basal keratinocytes and may manifest as benign, premalignant, or malignant cutaneous pathology in chronically sun-damaged areas. Complete surgical excision with histologic examination is needed for potential malignancy. In this report, we describe two elderly women presenting with solitary facial cutaneous horns, which were respectively diagnosed as actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma.
皮肤角是由致密分层的角质形成的圆锥形、边界清楚的隆起。这些病变起源于基底角质形成细胞,在长期受阳光损伤的区域可能表现为良性、癌前或恶性皮肤病变。对于潜在的恶性病变,需要进行完整的手术切除并进行组织学检查。在本报告中,我们描述了两名老年女性,她们均出现孤立性面部皮肤角,分别被诊断为光化性角化病和鳞状细胞癌。
