Abstract

We would like to present the case of eruptive keratoacanthomas associated with dupilumab therapy, which occurred in an 85-year-old woman receiving biologic therapy for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. With the increasing prevalence of Dupilumab usage, this is an important potential complication of which clinicians should be aware.
