| Abstract: | Clear cell acanthoma of Degos is a rare benign tumour of epidermal origin with distinct histological features. Clinically, clear cell acanthoma is characterized by a 'stuck on' appearance of a nodule or dome-shaped plaque that usually occurs on the legs of middle-aged or elderly persons. We observed an unusual case of polypoid clear cell acanthoma on the right thigh of a 58-year-old male. |
