Vasudevan, Biju; Sawhney, M.P.S. & Sharma, Nitu
Abstract
A 58-year-old man presented with complaints of blackish discoloration of forearms and face of five months duration. The lesions occurred episodically after taking anti-cancer medications, each episode lasting for two weeks. Histopathology confirmed a lichenoid eruption. Photolichenoid eruption to docetaxel is a dermatological adverse effect not reported in literature earlier.
