Keloid : Gross Pathology
Image Description
Gross Pathology: Keloids form round, oval, or linear, raised, well-circumscribed, skin-covered nodules. Early lesions are soft and erythematous and have a pink-tan cut surface. In later stages, the lesions become firm with a yellowish-white, dense fibrotic cut surface (shown here). Image courtesy of Dr. Jean-Christophe Fournet, Paris, France; humpath.com
