Sažetak

Keratoachantoma are rather common skin tumors that originate in pilosebaceal glands. Their characteristics are fast growth during first few weeks, followed by, in most cases, spontaneous regresion in four to six months. It is difficult to distinguish them, both clinicaly and patohistologicly, from well differentiated squamose cell skin cancer. Since head and neck keratoacanthoma heal with cosmetically unacceptable scar, and being hard to distinguishe from skin squamous cell cancer, surgical excision is preffered treatment.
