What is seborrheic keratosis?

Patients must be aware of the rash appearance of seborrheic keratosis, accompanied by a variety of visceral malignancies, acanthosis nigricans and other epidermal hyperplasia phenomena, suggesting that tumor derived circulating growth factors may be related to the pathogenesis of these lesions. Melanocyte hyperplasia is common in seborrheic keratosis.

Patients must understand that the histopathology of the disease presents a variety of different manifestations. Generally, it can be divided into six types: keratosis type, spinous hypertrophy type, colony type, adenoid type, stimulating type and black spinous skin type. Hyperkeratosis is also known as finger or serrated type. Hyperkeratosis and papilloma like proliferation are obvious, but spinous layer hypertrophy is not obvious. Many dermal papillae, which are covered with epidermis, extend upward like fingers, like the roof of a church.

Patients must go to a large hospital for regular treatment, do a comprehensive examination, patients can use curettage, it is best to use liquid nitrogen spray, so that the tissue is broken and easy to scrape, generally do not leave scars. Laser or electrocautery can also be used as appropriate. When the diagnosis is suspicious, surgical resection and biopsy can be performed. I wish you good health.
