Summaries for Keratoacanthoma

About this section
MalaCards based summary : Keratoacanthoma is related to basal cell carcinoma and verrucous carcinoma, and has symptoms including pruritus and exanthema. An important gene associated with Keratoacanthoma is MSH2 (MutS Homolog 2), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Endometrial cancer and Pathways in cancer. The drugs Lidocaine and Tacrolimus have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include skin, thyroid and bone, and related phenotypes are digestive/alimentary and integument
