As about 10 per cent, of cutaneoushorns develop into carcinoma, excision by the knifeinto the healthy skin is indicated. Recurrence takesplace after removal by ligature. Fig. 38 shows a slightly curved cutaneous hornabout one and one-half centimeters long, occurringin an old countrywoman, in the zygomatic region,with all the characteristic features.
