Abstract:
This article reviews the adverse cutaneous reactions to antineoplastic chemotherapeutic agents and cytokine therapy. The article details specific reactions such as acral erythemas and flushing reactions. It also discusses nonspecific reactions with specific histological features such as neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis and syringosquamous metaplasia. The wide variety of cutaneous reactions to cytokine therapy such as from recombinant interleukins and the colony stimulating factors are reviewed.
