Skin giant keratoacanthoma in dermatovenerologist’s practice
The aim of the article is to characterize a rare clinical case of giant keratoacanthoma. We present a clinical observation of this precancerous skin growth. Keratoacanthoma, a rapidly growing, benign skin tumor, may transform into squamous cell skin cancer, necessitating prompt, precise diagnosis and treatment. The unusual nature of this clinical case stems from its infrequent occurrence and sparse documentation. The given observation illustrates the necessity of early diagnosis of the disease and the importance of timely and correct prescription of therapy. The article indicates the importance of continuity in the treatment of epithelial skin neoplasms.
