This article deals with dermatologic neoplasms. It includes dermatologic cancer, which can be deadly. Collectively, dermatologic cancers are the most common form of cancer.
An introduction to dermatopathy is found in the dermatopathology article. Non-malignant disease is covered in the non-malignant skin disease article.
The Big Three malignant

Main article: Basal cell carcinoma
Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
Main article: Squamous carcinoma
- Abbreviated skin SCC, SCC of the skin, and SCC of skin.
General
Precursor:[1]
- Actinic keratosis (solar keratosis).
- Clinical: yellow-brown scaly, patches, sandpaper sensation.
Risk factors:[1]
- Sun exposure.
- Immune suppression (e.g. organ transplant recipients).
Notes:
- Keratoacanthoma.
- Some don't believe this entity exists.
- These people sign this entity as low grade squamous cell carcinoma, keratoacanthoma type.[2]
- Some don't believe this entity exists.
Microscopic
High risk features - for SCC of the skin:[3]
- Primary site is ear or lip.†
- Clark level IV/V = reticular dermis or deeper.
- >=2 mm thickness -- measured from granular layer (stratum granulosum) or ulcer base to deepest aspect.
- Lymphovascular invasion.
- Perineural invasion.
- Poorly differentiated.
Note:
- † The words used are "hair-bearing lip" - but there is considerable confusion about this as the AJCC manual contradicts itself.[4]
DDx:
- Inverted follicular keratosis.
- Bowen disease.
- Malignant melanoma.
- Paget disease of the breast.
- Eccrine carcinoma
Bowen disease
Bowen disease is squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the skin.

- IHC is used to separate the entities definitively.
Histologic DDx of Bowen disease:
- Benign Toker cell hyperplasia.
- Malignant melanoma.
- Paget disease of the breast.
- Eccrine carcinoma.
