    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Keratoacanthomas are common skin tumors, typically self-limiting.
    • Multiple keratoacanthomas can present diagnostic challenges.
    • Understanding variations in presentation is crucial for patient management.

    Observation:

    • A unique case of multiple keratoacanthomas involving the face and lower extremities is presented.
    • Lesions on the lower extremities exhibited characteristics of giant keratoacanthomas.
    • These giant lesions evolved into a distinctive confluent plaque formation.

    Findings:

    • Persistent lesions were clinically and histologically confirmed as keratoacanthomas.
    • The presentation included unusual giant keratoacanthoma morphology on the lower extremities.
    • The case highlights the spectrum of keratoacanthoma presentation.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of keratoacanthoma morphology and behavior.
    • It underscores the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for accurate diagnosis.
    • Reviewing the current classification of keratoacanthomas is warranted based on such unique presentations.
