TY - JOUR T1 - Erythema annulare centrifugum preceding carcinoma larynx AU - Piotr Brzezinski AU - Masaoud Sousak AU - Cesar Bimbi Y1 - 2018/10/01 N1 - 10.7241/ourd.20184.23 JO - Our Dermatology Online SP - 443 EP - 446 VL - 9 IS - 4 AB - Erythema annulare centrifugum (EAC) is characterized by annular, erythematous plaques with trailing scale. The skin lesions may be indurated or soft and may be static or spread centrifugally. It is considered to be a reactive condition with a wide variety of inciting causes but unclear pathophysiology. We describe a 62-year-old man with EAC. Since no association of EAC with concomitant bacterial or viral infections, we started diagnostics in the direction of systemic disease or cancer. Investigations confirmed carcinoma of larynx. We want to emphasize that EAC can appear many years before the onset of carcinoma. This is the first description of the ECM and carcinoma of the larynx with a long list of co-existing cancers.
