Herein, we report a unique case of generalized eruptive keratoacanthoma ( GEKA ) in a 47‐year‐old Chinese man presenting with extensive pruritic papules and nodules accompanied by oral lesions. He also had a 2‐year history of vitiligo and long‐term experience of working outdoors. Biopsies were consistent with keratoacanthoma . Interestingly, prurigo nodularis ( PN ) was found in histopathology at 1‐year follow up. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing a case of GEKA with oral lesions complicated with vitiligo and developed with PN .
