Abstract

A 55-year-old male presented to the dermatology department with a primary complaint of a problematic tumor-like lesion located on the lower lip, persisting for approximately five months. Clinical and dermatoscopic evaluation established a diagnosis of keratoacanthoma, and surgical excision under local anesthesia was recommended.
