Abstract EN

Keratoacanthoma is an epithelial neoplasm occurring on the sun exposed skin of elderly persons.

It usually presents as solitary flesh colored nodule with central keratin plug and is characterized by rapid growth followed by spontaneous regression in weeks to months.

We present a 45 year old male with keratoacanthoma on forehead present for a long time with recent rapid increase in growth following trauma.
