Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are targeted treatments for various cancers. Skin toxicities are one of the most common nonhematological side-effects of TKIs. We report an imatinib mesylate (IM) induced hyperpigmented acne rosacea (AR) and sunitinib-induced palmar hyperkeratosis in the case with gastrointestinal stromal tumor. AR was arisen due to the discontinuation of IM. To the best of our knowledge, this kind of cutaneous side-effect with IM has not been documented previously.
