    Keratoacanthomas can develop in congenital linear epidermal nevi. Clinicians should suspect secondary tumors like keratoacanthoma in any new nodule within these nevi.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Congenital linear epidermal nevi are rare birthmarks.
    • These nevi can sometimes develop secondary skin tumors.

    Observation:

    • This study documents a case of keratoacanthomas arising within a congenital linear epidermal nevus.
    • Keratoacanthomas are a type of benign skin tumor that can grow rapidly.

    Findings:

    • Previously reported cases show that squamous-cell carcinoma, basal-cell epithelioma, and keratoacanthoma can occur in linear epidermal nevi.
    • The development of these tumors is a known complication of linear epidermal nevi.

    Implications:

    • Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for secondary tumors in patients with linear epidermal nevi.

  • Early detection and diagnosis of nodules in linear epidermal nevi are crucial for timely management of potential malignancies.
