Neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis associated with induction chemotherapy.

We report three new cases of neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis associated with induction chemotherapy which resolves two major points. First, because two of our patients had testicular carcinoma; this firmly establishes that NEH is not exclusively seen in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or Hodgkin's lymphoma as previously reported. Second, because two of our patients did not receive cytarabine which has previously been suspected of being the causative agent, it is apparent that this disorder may be produced by more than one chemotherapeutic agent or combination of agents. The histologic features with a discussion of the spectrum of changes which may be seen are presented.

Keratosis punctata palmaris et plantaris and adenocarcinoma of the colon. A possible familial association of punctate keratoderma and gastrointestinal malignancy.

We report a patient with keratosis punctata palmaris et plantaris who developed adenocarcinoma of the colon. Family history revealed at least seven other individuals with punctate keratoderma. The patient's mother had punctate keratoderma and carcinoma of the colon, and his maternal grandfather had punctate keratoderma and carcinoma of the pancreas. This is the third reported family, to our knowledge, in which hereditary palmar and plantar hyperkeratosis appears to be associated with gastrointestinal carcinomas.
