Generalized eruptive keratoacanthoma

Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol. 1986 Oct;62(4):422-6. doi: 10.1016/0030-4220(86)90292-6.

Abstract

Two forms of keratoacanthoma are presently recognized: a solitary form and a multiple form. The multiple form has two variants: multiple self-healing epitheliomas of skin or Ferguson Smith type and eruptive keratoacanthoma or Grzybowski type. Though solitary cutaneous keratoacanthomas are common, the multiple variants are extremely rare. A case of eruptive keratoacanthoma with oral involvement is presented with a brief discussion contrasting the two variants of multiple keratoacanthoma.
