    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Context:

    • Paraneoplastic acrokeratosis is a rare skin condition.
    • It is exclusively observed in patients with upper respiratory and digestive tract carcinomas or with cervical/mediastinal lymph node metastases.

    Purpose:

    • To review the clinical presentation, histopathology, and differential diagnosis of paraneoplastic acrokeratosis.
    • To discuss potential pathogenetic mechanisms, including allergic or toxic reactions to tumor-derived substances.

    Summary:

    • Characterized by acral erythematous, squamous, and hyperkeratotic plaques with centripetal spread.
    • The condition's resolution is contingent upon successful treatment of the underlying carcinoma.
    • Histological and biochemical data are reviewed in the context of the disease's course.
