Acquired fibrokeratoma presenting as multiple plantar nodules

Dermatol Online J. 2010 Oct 15;16(10):5.

Abstract

Acquired digital fibrokeratoma is a rare benign fibroepithelial tumor that typically presents as a solitary asymptomatic nodule on the finger or toe. Middle-aged adults are most commonly affected. Here we discuss an unusual case of acquired digital fibrokeratoma presenting as a cluster of multiple nodules on the sole of a 15-year-old boy.
