Background: Use of intralesional corticosteroids in the management of keratoacanthomas has been reported in older literature. Yet this therapy is no longer a commonly considered treatment option.
Objective: To report management of a therapeutically challenging patient with multiple eruptive keratoacanthomas with intralesional corticosteriod treatment to revive awareness of this treatment option.
Methods: A 55-year-old female with frequent episodes of multiple eruptive keratoacanthomas was treated with intralesional corticosteroids and methotrexate.
Results: Intralesional corticosteroids successfully treated eruptive keratoacanthomas with complete regression and minimal scarring within 2-4 weeks.
Conclusion: Despite its limitations, intralesional corticosteroids may have a role in the treatment of select keratoacanthomas.
