[The most common benign cutaneous neoplasms of the epidermis and appendages and their treatment].

Abstract

Benign cutaneous neoplasms are well defined histologically with absence of all of the following features: architectural disorder, necrosis, cytologic atypia, and atypical mitotic figures. The clinical appearance of any neoplasm is a very important diagnostic factor. The classification of the lesion determines the therapeutic options. This article summarizes the clinical aspects and treatments of the most common benign tumors of the epidermis and its appendages.
