The authors hereby report a case of an 18-year-old male patient who presented with waxy hyperpigmented keratotic papules on the right side of the trunk and lower limb and was confirmed by histopathology. He was treated with oral acitretin, 25 mg once a day, which showed a marked clinical improvement within four months.
