Cutaneous horn - Kutant Horn
☆ I 2022 Stiftung Warentest-resultaterne fra Tyskland var forbrugernes tilfredshed med ModelDerm kun lidt lavere end med betalte telemedicinske konsultationer.
En biopsi er nødvendig, da hudkræft, såsom pladecellekarcinom, ofte er til stede.

Cutaneous horn er dybest set en synlig vækst, der ligner et hvidt eller gult dyrehorn, når man ser på det. Det er nu almindeligt forstået, at disse horn dukker op som en reaktion på forskellige hudproblemer - nogle godartede, nogle potentielt bliver til kræft. Actinic keratoses er den mest almindelige ikke-kræftårsag, mens squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) er den mest almindelige kræftårsag.
A cutaneous horn is usually evident upon physical examination and can be described as a white or yellow exophytic protrusion in the shape of an animal horn. Cutaneous horns are now widely accepted as a reactive cutaneous growth caused by a variety of benign, premalignant, or malignant primary processes. Actinic keratoses are the most common premalignant primary cause of cutaneous horn, while squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common malignant cause.

Cutaneous horn er en tæt, kegleformet vækst med fortykket hud, der ofte ligner et dyrs horn. Det er et udtryk, der beskriver en usædvanlig opbygning af hærdede hudceller, snarere end en specifik sygdom. Cutaneous horns kan udvikle sig sammen med forskellige godartede, præ-cancerøse eller kræftfremkaldende hudtilstande. En vigtig bekymring er at skelne mellem en fortykket solskadet hudplet og en potentielt kræftfremkaldende vækst som planocellulært karcinom. En anden synder er keratoacanthoma, der viser sig som en hævet, neglelignende tumor. Behandling involverer typisk at fjerne hornet og undersøge det under et mikroskop for at kontrollere for kræft.
Cutaneous horn is a dense, cone-shaped growth with thickened skin, often resembling an animal's horn. It's a term describing an unusual buildup of hardened skin cells, rather than a specific disease. Cutaneous horns can develop alongside various benign, pre-cancerous, or cancerous skin conditions. A key concern is distinguishing between a thickened sun-damaged skin spot and a potentially cancerous growth like squamous cell carcinoma. Another culprit is keratoacanthoma, which presents as a raised, nail-like tumor. Treatment typically involves removing the horn and examining it under a microscope to check for cancer.

Malignitet er til stede i op til 20 % af tilfældene, hvor pladecellekarcinom er den mest almindelige type. Hyppigheden af planocellulært karcinom er til 37 %, når læsionen er til stede på penis.
