The nuclear factor kappa B p50 subunit and cortactin as markers to distinguish between keratoacanthoma and well‐differentiated squamous cell carcinoma

Background.  Distinguishing keratoacanthoma (KA) from well‐differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is sometimes difficult. Recent evidence indicates that the nuclear factor kappa B p50 subunit (p50) and cortactin might be useful to distinguish between these two conditions.
