We report a case of a 41-year-old male patient with no family history, presented with extensive multiple keratoacanthomas with disfiguring scars. The diagnosis of a sporadic form of Ferguson-Smith syndrome was made. Treatment with acitretin showed a marked response. Recognizing this syndrome is crucial, early treatment helps avoid scar format
