We herein present the first case of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel)- and/or gemcitabine-induced scleroderma accompanied by acanthosis nigricans-like skin changes in a 54-year-old Japanese male. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and received 17 courses of nab-paclitaxel
Acanthosis nigricans is a reaction pattern to over a dozen different causes. The skin, most classic in the axilla, is dark, soft, velvet-like with fine folding and papillae. The mechanism of this skin change is decreased viscosity of extracellular matrix (ECM) combined with mechanical extrusion of
Acromegaly is a systemic syndrome caused by overproduction of growth hormone. Cutaneous, endocrine, cardiovascular, skeletal, and respiratory systems are affected. Cutaneous changes in acromegaly relate to overexpression of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 on skin cells and adnexa.
Cutaneous changes in acromegaly result from excess GH and IGF-1 action on skin cells and adnexae. Skin puffiness due to dermal glycosaminoglycan accumulation and edema are most prominent in the face, hands and feet. Oily skin with large pores, hypertrichosis, and excessive sweating are common
OBJECTIVE
To report a 7-year-old young girl who was found unresponsive and found to be in severe diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Presence of obesity, acanthosis nigricans, and strong family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) along with negative pancreatic autoimmune antibody evaluation
Recently, a causative association has been made between the ingestion of levotryptophan (L-tryptophan) and the eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome (EMS), a new entity manifested by peripheral blood eosinophilia, myalgias, constitutional symptoms, and cutaneous edema with fibrosis. Contaminated
The skin plays a critical role in the detection of internal malignances. Cutaneous signs of these disorders afford clinicians opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment. We aim to succinctly review the recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of selected cutaneous paraneoplastic diseases. Skin
