A Rare Case Presentation of Warty Dyskeratoma Involving Multiple Adjoining Follicles | Chapter 20 | Emerging Trends in Disease and Health Research Vol. 9

A uncommon epidermal tumour called a warty dyskeratoma primarily affects middle-aged and elderly individuals. It often affects the head and neck region and manifests as a papule or nodule. A 65-year-old lady has reported itching and nodular swelling throughout her right face for the previous 15 years. The excised mass had enormous, many invaginations, lacunae, and villi formation, as well as hyperkeratotic, parakeratotic, and acanthotic epidermis. In the stratum corneum and upper malpighi layer, dyskeratotic acantholytic cells are common. According to the research, solitary hair follicles are where these modifications are most frequently seen. After excisional biopsy, there was no sign of recurrence in our patient. We offer a special case of a warty dyskeratoma involving several nearby hair follicles.
