Abstract EN

Keratoacanthoma centrifugum marginatum (KCM) is a rare variant of keratoacanthoma (KA).

It is characterized by a progressive peripheral expansion and central healing leaving atrophic scar.

It is sometimes confused with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) both clinically and histopathologically.

We here report a case of KCM over the extensor aspect of the right forearm in a 57-year-old man with an abnormal looking scar.
