A 75-year-old man presented with an abdominal enlarging painless tumor of the skin evolving over the last 30 years. His past medical history was unremarkable. Physical examination revealed a brownish pedunculated cutaneous mass which had an irregular keratotic warty surface with no discharge or ulceration. The mass was clinically presumed to be a melanocytic tumor, or a verrucous carcinoma. A monoblock excision of the mass was performed with a good outcome. The specimen was then sent to our pathology department to rule out malignancy. Macroscopic examination revealed a brownish tumor of 7.5 × 7 × 1.5 cm which had fissures and cauliflower-like appearance. Final histological report concluded to a giant seborrheic keratosis.

“…They are most often found on the head, neck and trunk. They usually range in size from a few millimetres to a few centimetres [ 2 , 3 ]. We report a case of a unique seborrheic keratosis of a size and clinical appearance that simulates squamous cell carcinoma, which was treated by surgical excision.…”

Introduction Seborrheic keratoses are benign tumours that occur electively on the head, neck and trunk. It can be confused on its clinical appearance with other skin tumours and it is the histological examination that establishes the diagnosis. We report a case of seborrheic keratosis simulating squamous cell carcinoma. Observation A 62-year-old woman consulted for a budding right jugal lesion that had been evolving for 6 months. Clinical examination found a right jugal budding lesion with crusts on its surface, pedunculated, surrounded by a hyperpigmented halo at its base, firm to palpation, painless and non bleeding on contact. An initial biopsy of the lesion for histological examination confirmed the diagnosis, followed by complete surgical excision. Discussion Seborrheic keratoses are benign tumours that occur mainly in subjects over 50 years of age. They occur electively on the trunk, head and neck. Its clinical aspect is generally typical but sometimes misleading, as found in our case; only histology allows to make the diagnosis of certainty.

“…[ 11 ] The cause of genital SK is as yet unknown, but there may be a possible role of chronic friction. [ 2 ] Formation of in situ carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma has been documented rarely in acanthotic SK. [ 11 ] The common flat type of SK may be left alone or may be treated with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, curettage, shave excision, or light electrodessication.…”

Seborrheic keratosis (SK) is a very common benign epidermal proliferation that is prevalent in all races. Most commonly occurring on the trunk, face, scalp, and the extremities, they can occur anywhere on the body except the palms and soles. The most common appearance is that of a very superficial verrucous plaque which appears to be stuck on the surface. Giant lesions are very rare, and their location on the genital area is rarer still. We report here a case of multiple giant SK lesions in a 59-year-old man.
