Keratoacanthoma
the diagnosis is usually easy. Shorthistory, rapid growth, central plug, classic raised edges. BUT many turn out to be SCC and if you sit and watch they will get away from you. My policy is excision and histology. The report will mostly be SCC as the two are hard to distinguish for the pathologist. The best KA is in the bottle.
