Acanthoma
Medical condition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An acanthoma is a skin neoplasm composed of squamous or epidermal cells. It is located in the prickle cell layer.[1]
Types of acanthoma include pilar sheath acanthoma, a benign follicular tumor usually of the upper lip; clear cell acanthoma, a benign tumor found most frequently on the legs; and Degos acanthoma, often confused with but unrelated to Degos disease.
