“…The columns may be penetrated by inflammatory cells, a feature not seen in malignant proliferation, and individual cells do not show atypical features suggestive of malignancy. This is seen at the margin of chronic ulcers, over chronic cutaneous granulomas like lupus vulgaris, tuberculosis verrucosa cutis, or hypertrophic lichen planus etc., ‘Pseudo’ tag is given to differentiate it from carcinomatous lesions[18] [Figure 9]. …”

In the bewildering array of scientific nomenclature in the medical field, it is important to use correct terminology, know their aberrations and the reason behind a specific terminology. This paper is an attempt towards compiling all the pseudo-nomenclatures coined in dermatology, in order to make it easier to retain and recollect these pseudo names, signs, morphology, diseases, and conditions. It is also imperative to know the true entities that these pseudo names masquerade as, so as to understand the explanation for assigning the term ‘pseudo’ to these conditions. A total of 52 pseudo-terms have been compiled here in reference to dermatology. Most of these pseudo-nomenclatures were coined due to some clinical or histopathological resemblance to the true conditions, while some were premature conclusions drawn from a flawed understanding of the basic nature of the condition. Clear understanding of each of these terms and the explanation behind them being pseudo will enable a dermatologist to avoid misdiagnosis and needless confusion.

“…Changes simulating squamous cell carcinoma can be observed adjacent to granular cell tumor, bromoderma, and deep mycosis [2,11,12]. Another atypical epithelial lesion which resembles a basal cell carcinoma has been reported overlying sclerosing hemangiomas or dermatofibromas [1, 3-5, 7-10, 13].…”

Atypical Sweat Duct Hyperplasia Accompanying Keratoacanthoma

25 cases of atypical sweat duct proliferation in association with cutaneous tumors are described. 20 of these were keratoacanthomas. The compression of the duct either in its dermal or intraepidermal portion is considered to be the etiology. Similar changes are seen with decubitus ulcer and stasis dermatitis. Atypical sweat duct hyperplasia may be useful as an extra aid in the differentiation of keratoacanthoma from well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma.
