title: [Evaluation of surgical treatment of keratoacanthoma].
abstract: From 1973 to 1988 in the Dermatological Surgery Unit of the 1st Department of Dermatology of the Silesian School of Medicine in Katowice 82 patients were treated surgically for keratoacanthoma. In 76 patients the defect was closed by simple bringing closer the edges or by local plastic surgery, in 6 patients it was covered with free full-thickness skin grafts. The preparations of the excised tumors from various places were examined histologically. In three cases the texture of carcinoma spinocellulare was found in the base of the tumor. In 98% of the patients the wounds healed by first intention.
