Introduction

The second volume of the Dermatopathology Primer series deals with neoplastic diseases of the skin. This volume is a complement the first volume on inflammatory diseases.

As we noted in the first volume, the intent of these books is to introduce the basic concepts of dermatopathology to medical students and residents training in pathology and dermatology.

The book is organized into chapters discussing the differentiation of various neoplasms. These include cysts, epidermal, melanocytic lymphoid, and soft tissue neoplasms, both benign and malignant. For each neoplasm we have used illustrations and discussion demonstrating the most characteristic features. In addition, we have also included illustrations of the entities that enter in the differential diagnosis. Because of space limitations and the limited scope of the book, variations of the different neoplasms are not included. For further information the reader is encourage to consult any of several standard books of dermatopathology.

We hope that this book will fulfill the expectations of students beginning the study of dermatopathology.

Clinical variants Important Things To Know • Subungual keratoacanthoma is an • Keratoacanthomas of the face and neck can metastasize aggressive carcinoma • Eruptive keratoacanthomas, which can appear suddenly and in crops 21 squamous cEll carciNoma Introduction Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common cancer of the skin and accounts for 20% of cutaneous malignancies. Most squamous cell carcinomas are readily treated with few sequelae. Larger or more invasive lesions Epidemiology may require aggressive management and have the potential to metastasize. • SCC occurs in men about two to three Histological features times more frequently than it does in Histology will vary based on the different subtypes of SCC, however common women features are: • Predisposing factors include: Fitzpatrick 1. Acanthosis skin types I and II, being middle-aged or 2. Full-thickness intraepidermal proliferation of atypical keratinocytes, cellular elderly, multiple atypical keratinocytes atypia and mitoses (AK), a history of nonmelanoma skin 3. Atypical keratinocytes in the dermis (the main feature that distinguishes cancer, frequent UV light exposure invasive SCC from SCC in situ) • SCC is associated with 4. Keratinization results in the production of keratin pearls immunosuppressive therapy Other features: SCC is also associated with chronic • • Hyperkeratosis and parakeratosis skin ulcers, prior X ray treatment, • Atypical keratinocytes may be found in the basal layer and often extend HPV infection, arsenic ingestion, HIV deeply down hair follicles infection, smoking, genetic syndromes • Histological variants include: acantholytic, adenoid, spindle cell, clear cell type, such as xeroderma pigmentosum, and signet-ring cell type, , sarcomatoid and pigmented type toxic exposure to tars and oils Pathophysiology • The primary cause of most SCC is cumulative lifetime UV light exposure; including PUVA • Inactivation of the tumor suppressor 4 gene TP53 occurs in up to 90% of all 1 cutaneous SCC lesions. Other tumor suppressor genes found to be mutated include P16 and P14 3 2 • Iatrogenic immunosuppression and DNA repair failure, such as in Squamous cell carcinoma xeroderma pigmentosum, have also been Squamous cell carcinoma associated with increased incidence of SCC

Clinical variants • Verrucous • Keratoacanthoma 22 Clinical features • Hyperkeratotic or ulcerated plaque with a red, inflamed base, a growing tumor, or a non-healing ulcer, often on sun-exposed areas such as the head and neck • SCC can also occur on the lips, inside the mouth, on the genitalia. It can be de Histological differential novo or arise from an AK • SCC is capable of locally infiltrative 1.

Important Things To Know • If the tumor is poorly differentiated it is associated with a higher risk of metastasis • Patients who develop one SCC have a 40% risk of developing another SCC within the next 2 years and should be evaluated with a complete skin examination every 6–12 months
