Warty dyskeratoma, a rare skin condition, typically presents as a single lesion. This case report details a patient with numerous nodules, the highest recorded number, suggesting a hair follicle origin for this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology
  • Histopathology

Background:

  • Warty dyskeratoma (WD) is an uncommon benign epidermal neoplasm.
  • It typically presents as a solitary, crusted papule or nodule.
  • The etiology and exact origin of WD remain debated.

Observation:

  • This report describes a unique case of a 63-year-old man with multiple warty dyskeratoma lesions.
  • The patient presented with a significantly higher number of nodules than previously documented.
  • Pathological examination revealed characteristic features of acantholysis.

Findings:

  • The study identifies a rare presentation of warty dyskeratoma with multiple lesions.
  • The extensive nodular presentation is the most numerous reported to date.

  • Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis based on acantholysis.

    • Implications:

    • The findings suggest that warty dyskeratoma may originate from the hair follicle.
    • This case expands the clinical spectrum of warty dyskeratoma presentation.
    • Further research into the follicular origin of warty dyskeratoma is warranted.
