Abstract  Conical growths called cutaneous horns can be found in a variety of body locations, ideally, those that receive the most sun exposure. Since lesions may contain both premalignant and malignant entities, they are clinically significant. Histologically, they are made of hyperkeratotic material and resemble animal horns, but they are not the same since they lack the central bone core that sets animal horns apart. We discuss the case of a 51-year-old man who has had a conical projection above the middle of his head for 8 years. The horn was detached 8 months before the patient visited us, but it has since grown again, and it was clinically determined to be a cutaneous horn. Spacemen were taken for histological analysis after the horn and base were removed, and the results revealed no cancerous alterations. The preferred course of treatment for cutaneous horn is excision of the lesion with sufficient margins, followed by histological confirmation. Introduction A cutaneous horn is

Overview Bone fragility is a condition that occurs when bones become weak and brittle, making them more likely to break. It is a major public health concern, affecting millions of people worldwide. The most common type of bone fragility is osteoporosis, which is a condition that causes a progressive loss of bone mass and density. Osteoporosis is often called a "silent disease" because it often has no symptoms until a fracture occurs. The risk of bone fragility increases with age, especially after menopause in women. Other risk factors for bone fragility include: Family history of osteoporosis Low body weight Caucasian or Asian ancestry Certain medical conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and hyperthyroidism Long-term use of certain medications, such as corticosteroids There are a number of things that can be done to prevent bone fragility, including: Eating a healthy diet that is rich in calcium and vitamin D Getting regular exercise Avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol
