Typical lesions consist of a firm dome-shaped nodule, 1 to 2 centimeters in diameter, with a horn-filled crater in its center. Objectives: To present it was selected an atypical case of a 43-year-old woman who had a solitary keratoacanthoma (KA) of the lower lip with a history of two years of evolution and mistreatment and to discuss the difficulties of the diagnosisprocess. Conclusion: Because of the rarity of the lesion and its similarity with squamous cells carcinoma the general dentist must explain to the patient that the clinical aspects are not conclusive of the diagnosis and a correct acquisition of the surgical specimen is crucial to an accurate histopathological interpretation and conclusive diagnosis. 2010 artículo científico 1677-1028 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=92921672022 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=929 ConScientiae Saúde application/pdf Universidade Nove de Julho ConScientiae Saúde (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.9 |
