Abstract:
Erythema gyratum repens (EGR) is a rare skin syndrome often associated with internal malignancies, and thus considered paraneoplastic. There are cases of erythema gyratum repens in the literature associated with other dermatoses without underlying malignancies. We present a case of resolving psoriasis which evolved into erythema gyratum repens when treated with acitretin.
