Abstract
Keratoacanthoma (KA) is a self-regressing cutaneous tumor sharing clinical and histopathological similarities with squamous cell carcinoma. It is relatively uncommon and presents diagnostic challenges, particularly in pediatric patients. This paper presents a case study of KA affecting the upper lip keratosis in a 6-year-old girl. Through a comprehensive analysis of the pathogenesis, differential diagnosis, and treatment approaches of KA in children based on existing literature, we aim to offer clinical insights and guidance for practice.
角化棘皮瘤(KA)是一种自发性皮肤肿瘤,在临床和组织病理学上与鳞状细胞癌相似。这种肿瘤相对少见,诊断困难,尤其是在儿童患者中。本文介绍了一例影响上唇角化的 KA 病例,患者是一名 6 岁女孩。在现有文献的基础上,我们对儿童 KA 的发病机制、鉴别诊断和治疗方法进行了全面分析,旨在为临床实践提供见解和指导。
