Abstract:Keloids are hypertrophic scars that develop as a result of various pathophysiologic mechanisms. We report a case of a 30‐year‐old Cameroonian woman who presented with keloid‐like masses in the abdomen. The onset was postpartum without trauma. After histopathologic confirmation, we concluded a postinflammatory keloid.
